Whip & Dish
Free recipes on readable cards, with the ingredients and directions together and no life story above them. They come from the Wikibooks Cookbook and Fannie Farmer’s 1910 cookbook, and every card credits its source.

Food Manager Ready
Free practice for food manager certification and food handler tests, with plain explanations that usually point to the FDA Food Code section behind the answer. An independent study aid: it doesn’t examine anyone or issue a certification.

The company
Whiptronics LLC
Whiptronics LLC is the one-person company behind these projects. It builds useful tools that are simple, honest, and painless to use.
About
Most of my projects begin with a small annoyance. I go looking for a tool, find something that’s close but not quite right, and start wondering how it could be better.
I work independently, so I get to sweat the details that matter to me: a recipe card with nothing in the way, a moon page that shows where its facts come from, a practice question that tells you why.
Then I keep improving it. I’d rather make one thing people come back to than a dozen they forget.
What I try to do
Build things that are useful, respect the people who use them, and leave the world a little better than we found it.
