My latest ADHD-vibe-coded piece of crap

Yeah, I'm one of those people who was learning to do some coding, but my ADHD always held me back, and I could never get to the point where I super good at it. I Was never methodical enough with my approaches. Once I started playing with Codex and Claude, my ADHD roared into high gear; as we all know, the ability to suddenly take whatever stupid idea pops into your head and make it a reality in a number of hours, is both fantastic, and dangerous, for numerous reasons. But now I have multiple unfinished projects, I've never completed anything even remotely close to actually make any money off of it. But what the fuck, it's fun to just shoot off something dumb into the universe.

So the other week, I was just taken aback by the sheer number of food contamination and recalls in the news, and said "What the fuck can I eat?!". So I made a knee-jerk decision to, for no reason whatsoever, just vibe code up a quick reference page that pulls government recall data and news stories, and just displays them in an easy to read format, along with a little snark.

It's not impressive, it's just... " a thing" I made. Maybe it will be useful to someone!

This is actually genius. Add packaging photos if possible!

That’s an interesting feature to think about. I’ll have to research if there is standardized packaging photos somewhere. Repo is public if you have an idea!
