History
Food.com changed their name to Genius Kitchen in 2017, but as of July 2019 it switched back to Food.com once again. The site formerly known as Recipezaar, and originally as Cookpoint, was created in 1999 outside of Seattle, Washington by two ex-Microsoft technologists Gay Gilmore and Troy Hakala. What started as an idea to connect home cooks from all over the world has grown into a daily cooking community, featuring 500,000+ user-generated recipes, 125,000+ photos, millions of reviews and tweaks. Food.com is headquartered in New York and is part of the Discovery Inc. portfolio, which also owns and operates brands such as Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, American Heroes Channel, Food Network, Cooking Channel, HGTV, Travel Channel, DIY Network, and Great American Country.
