All of human cooking compressed into 2 megabytes | Hacker News

Hacker News discussed a project that claims to compress cooking knowledge into just 2 MB.

Commenters said the real breakthrough is representing cooking as about 1,800 ingredient primitives and flavor relationships, not detailed techniques.

The approach could help build recipe books, visual interfaces, and tools for learning to cook across languages.

It points to a new way to organize culinary knowledge for recipe design, search, and kitchen workflows.
