Out of the over 100 billion Pins, more than 15 billion are food related. Recipe searches on Pinterest have grown by 40 percent year over year, and while the platform allows users to save any visual idea, food and drink remains the number one category. Now, users that try the recipe can use a star system to rate it, which makes it easier for other users to quickly see any recipe’s rating.

The new search and Lens features are also joining an updated rating system.
