Editorial policy

Genuine Food Journal aims to explain food with care, curiosity, and room for different tastes. We make the distinction between established information, interpretation, and personal preference clear in the way we write.

Accuracy and clarity

We check factual details against suitable sources and write with enough context for readers to understand what a claim means. When a topic is uncertain, contested, or varies between traditions, we say so rather than smoothing away the differences.

Independence and partnerships

Editorial choices are made for their relevance to readers. Paid placements and material created with a partner are clearly labelled as such, and commercial arrangements do not determine the conclusions of editorial coverage.

Corrections

If you spot a factual error or unclear passage, contact us with the article and the detail in question. We review correction requests and amend material when warranted, making significant changes clear to readers.

Images and illustrations

Images are selected to support the subject and should not mislead readers about a dish, ingredient, or process. Some illustrations may be AI-generated; where relevant, they are identified.
