Neeva seems to be stealing all the important content from the recipe website which is a highly discussed issue. Bing tries to walk this line by making you still go to the website to read the instructions. Obviously people have trashed Google for doing this same thing on other kinds of websites. Though blogger recipe websites have somewhat encouraged this behavior due to their insane amount of ads & life stories they're well known for.
A very high percentage of ads on sites now use the Google ad network. So it may actually be in their interest to promote sites with more ads. They certainly promote a lot of garbage new sites on their Google news feed app and the product that they include on the pixel phones.
