With this new deep integration on Facebook, people will not only get updates on what their friends are liking or sharing, but also see comprehensive wall posts about the foods their friends are craving, making, and recommending. On their walls, Foodily users will have recipe images, source information, and customized lists that showcase all of the recipes they've explored and found using the recipe network.
"We're announcing the Foodily app for Facebook as a new way for people to connect around cooking and discover new recipes with their friends on one of the world's premier social platforms," said Andrea Cutright, CEO of Foodily. "We're honored to be participating in the initial roll out of features that take advantage of these new Facebook capabilities."
The Foodily app on Facebook also allows people to follow popular topics including dietary requirements, celebrity cooks and popular chefs. All Foodily content, including related posts and friends' comments, are streamlined in an easy-to-read Facebook feed, making the online experience more personal and relevant.
