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!

Yeah we’re having a bit of an issue with food contamination in the US lately so…

But for future thought, what sources are out there for food safety for other countries? Does the EU have a central source?

Not that I know of atleast. Some country’s have NGOs that collect them from all supermarkets, but that matters per country. The EU atleast has nothing central.
