Actually, I think so, via a copyright.

Actually, per this site:

https://paleoflourish.com/recipe-copyright/


Are Recipes Protected by Copyright Law?

In general, No, with exceptions (wow, it’s amazing how law school teaches you how to never give a straight answer!).

The Copyright Act has a whole list of things that are protected by copyright. Recipes are not on the list. Still, the list isn’t exclusive, meaning that things not on the list could be protected.

The general test for copyright protection is originality, and the original and creative portions of the work must be able to be separated from the utilitarian/functional aspects of the work.

For instance, clothing is a very popular example, since clothing is generally not able to be copyrighted at all (Knitwaves, Inc. v. Lollytogs Ltd., 71 F.3d 996, 1002 (2d Cir. 1995)). However, as the Knitwaves case also shows, patterns on clothes may be copyrighted, since they don’t tend to have any actual function. But when it comes to the clothing itself, courts have continually ruled that clothes are functional (i.e., designed to be used rather than displayed like art) and therefore not able to be copyrighted, even if the clothing design is new or unique.

Likewise, courts have generally ruled that recipes are functional and therefore not able to be copyrighted.

The most definitive case on this issue was Publications International, Ltd. v. Meredith Corp. (88 F.3d 473 (7th Cir. 1996)). This case involves the fascinating subject of a book of Dannon yogurt recipes

You should’ve offered to teach him your method, for a small fee (or free food) of course :)

Great looking burgers! Recipes can not be copyrighted, this is why they're so closely guarded.

thanks, P.Z., if you like bacon and jalapenos then you'll like the ABT Burger - - - - of course you can full your ABTs with anything you chose to. :tup: :salut: The one I had at the Eatery was the breaded popper style and it was good BUT I like the bacon wrapped best. :D
