Tasty
Tasty, distributed exclusively through the RapidAPI marketplace, mirrors the recipe database behind BuzzFeed's Tasty video network — recipe search, ingredient lists, and step-by-step instructions with photos — billed through RapidAPI's own subscription tiers. A live GET against the real RapidAPI proxy host, tasty.p.rapidapi.com, returned a genuine 401 'Invalid API key' JSON error while carrying an echoed Access-Control-Allow-Origin header, resolving cors unknown -> yes and reconfirming API Key auth in the same probe.

Auth quickstart
- Sign up with the provider to get an API key.
- Send it on every request as a header
Authorization: <key> - The exact header isn't documented — Authorization is a common default; confirm in the provider's docs.
Stored keyNo key stored
Your key is stored only in this browser (localStorage) and sent directly to the API — never to greatapis.
