Is Recipes New Tab safe?
Recipes New Tab requests random recipe results from api.spoonacular.com using a hardcoded API key.
When the new-tab page loads or the user refreshes recipes, the extension builds a Spoonacular recipes/random URL containing a bundled API key and fetches recipe results from api.spoonacular.com. The returned recipe data is saved in localStorage and rendered on the new-tab page; the recorded claim concerns the exposed credential used for those requests.
