AITA for calling out my roommate for straight up copying my recipe content for clout
ok so backstory, i (26F) have been posting cooking videos on my own little instagram for like 2 years now just for fun, nothing huge maybe 4k followers 馃尶 my roommate Meg (27F) and i have lived together for 3 years and she's always around when i film, tastes everything, gives feedback etc!! never once asked to be in it or anything. two months ago she starts a TikTok. same recipes i've made in our kitchen, SAME plating style i use, even the little "taste as you go bestie" thing i always say on camera. it blew up bc she's more on camera confident than me and now she's got a spice brand paying her $400 for a post. i finally said something last week, like hey this feels like my stuff, and she said recipes can't be owned and i'm being insecure bc she's "better on camera." our group chat with friends is now split, some are saying recipes are genuinely not intellectual property so i need to chill, others think the whole VIBE and delivery being copied is different from just making the same dish. we are barely talking in the apartment rn, it's SO awkward making dinner 馃崪
