>And the whole part of cooking is experimenting.

Ummm no. Not unless you are already very knowledgeable and experienced in cooking.

I cook nearly every meal I eat BTW.






I cook every meal I eat too. Tonight is Egg,Feta,Red Pepper, pie with a rosemary base.

> Not unless you are already very knowledgeable and experienced in cooking.

I disagree. The only knowledge is knowing what ingredient to add what to effect the flavor. Sweetness, sourness, punch, hotness.

Which yes, AI could provide you with, however any search engine can or even a decent cooking book. It's not new.

Maybe AI is the new cooking book, but you sure not going to get a decent flavor compared from a well written recipe from a book.


It is not fun being broke, exhausted and having little time to prepare a meal before you drop from exhaustion then do it again the next day. Hoping might get something edible is not fun. You just want something that isnt boiled shoe leather and is inexpensive. If you were not born into a life where people taught you to cook I can assure you learning to cook decent meals on your own is not fun in any way.

This "Fun experimental cooking" is a very,very privileged thing.


yeah most people just want to make food that is healthy and tastes good. Perfectly happy to follow a recipe like a LEGO kit.

Same, and I hate "experimenting" cooking. I memorize simple recipes and do them a lot.

I don't wanna experiment cooking, I want to have eaten.
