 ## How do I enable "smart" ingredient handling?
 
-You might have noticed that scaling up a recipe or making a shopping list doesn't by default handle the ingredients in a way you might expect. Depending on your settings, scaling up might yield things like `2 1 cup broth` instead of `2 cup broth`. And making shopping lists from reciepes that have shared ingredients can yield multiple lines of the same ingredient. **But** mealie has a mechanism to intelligently handle ingredients and make your day better.

For videos, Mealie provides no way to host videos. You'll need to host your videos with another provider and embed them in your recipe. Generally, the video provider will provide a link to the video and the html tag required to render the video. For example, youtube provides the following link that works inside a step.

 ## Why a Database?
-Some users of static-site generator applications like ChowDown have expressed concerns about their data being stuck in a database. Considering this is a new project it is a valid concern to be worried about your data. Mealie specifically addresses this concern by provided automatic daily backups that export your data in json, plain-text markdown files, and/or custom Jinja2 templates. **This puts you in controls of how your data is represented** when exported from Mealie, which means you can easily migrate to any other service provided Mealie doesn't work for you.
