1. Kindly put comma between your tags otherwise it becomes one long tag like "US_India_France_China_Australia_Europe_Canada" rather than separate values. 2. Food and recipes are global in nature. If the recipe is related to any special location, please mention that. But there is no need to repeat the names of a large number of countries. 3. Any food can be cooked and eaten at almost anytime. But some are more more suitable for one occasion than other. Kindly make the best possible guess whether it is everyday or party recipe, but try not to choose all tag values.
