    Don't forget that https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/ and the BBC Good Food paper magazine and App are published by Immediate Media under license from BBC Studios. BBC sold their magazine department back in 2018.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/food is the BBC website and funded by the license fee.
    BBC don't have a Food app.

    I think they should make an exemption if you upload your TV licence you do not have to pay! That is fair.

    Why has the money I paid for my TV licence gone towards providing a food recipe service?
    The license fee pays for the BBC website, which (mainly) shows recipies that were used on BBC TV shows at https://www.bbc.co.uk/food

    The BBC Good Food Magazine has always been commericially funded by people buying the magazine and the advertisers within (and any profits went back in to the BBC), but in 2018 the BBC sold the magazine off anyway.
