Food Idea Generator

Are you a chef who has hit a creative wall? A home cook who has prepared everything that a Nathan Myhrvold-led team can throw at you?

Now that Ferran Adria is out of business, surely a machine can take his place as an inspiration for cooks too lazy to go foraging or grow their own food. I present to you my food idea generator.

It has currently made around 3,000 random modernist cuisine recipes for you to try. A handful look truly delicious but most are nauseating..

Try it for yourself here.

    That’s really cool, and makes some truly bizarre suggestions, next you should cook a three course meal based on it.

    I’d be curious to know how it works, I made something similar myself a little while ago: http://www.cutsquash.com/processing/recipe_generator/recipeGeneratorv3.html
    would be interested if it’s based on similar principles.

    Hi, i just recently started to blog about, mainly low carb, food. If you like my blog you maybe want to link me to your list. I’m based in Adelaide, SA.
    Kind regards,
    Mia

    I’m not sure I understood the idea behind the food generator :( Why nauseating food?
