Returned Love and Lemons first too. Never heard of them, but their SEO must be amazing.

I'm pretty sure it's because they integrated some google thing in order so show that rating and reviews right below the search result. It has the highest rating/amount or reviews ratio so it feels like this logic is putting it to the first result. Will be not surprised if most of these comments and reviews are some language models talking to each other, it's a bit uncommon to see THOUSANDS of comments, ratings and reviews on a recipe site, probably SEO optimisation.
