Why can't I find a Markov chain-based recipe generator? Takes what you have in the kitchen and, perhaps, recipes that you like, builds new recipes or food combinations to try. I think ketiya would be a fan of that based on her latest post.

Why have to think about what to have for dinner when you have the computer put together something that is both do-able and probably (provably probably) tasty.

This would work on both the recipe and meal level. Although I've never seen "Iron Chef," I'd imagine it would be something like that. You have this can of chicken breast and you want to use it up. What might go good with that that isn't necessarily a recipe. I suppose it would be mostly "salads" and "stir-fries" in a technical sense as they can be most any food.

P.S. Mint, lime, sugar, and rum go well together.
