There's an app called browsh, a very bad portmanteau of "browser" and "shell." Basically, it uses Firefox to render the page and then converts everything into text.

I don't have the ingredients for all of that. But I might order a meatball sandwich.

It's not correct, it's not incorrect. You just put some meatballs on a hoagie roll with some cheese and sauce and blam!
