sharing recipes?

My Foods: You can share foods you create on the web version by opting to make them public and searchable in the Food Database. However, I would strongly recommend against that, because the Food Database already has most foods in it that are searchable via text or by barcode on the mobile app, and any food that you might share with the public Food Database could be edited (and taken over) by another user. So if you want to keep your own foods safe from being edited by another user, do not share them with the public Food Database.

Recipes: You can not share recipes directly with another user, and another user will not find your recipes through a search. Your recipes will be displayed in the search results only when you perform a search.

​There is a workaround to log another user's Recipe nutrition information. Once you log a Recipe to one of your Meals, another user who has access to your Food Diary can copy the Meal containing the Recipe item from your Diary to their Diary, then delete any unwanted entries from that copied Meal.
