Millions of awful recipies on the internet,
who cooks through them to find the 5000
that are really good?
Have a restaurant, have the chef pick 10
new things a week. Try to get all the patrons
to fill out a ratings slip after the meal.
Give everyone a little membership card;
rate 10 meals
get one free. Put recipies,
chef's comments/fixes, and patron's ratings
on the home page.
Keep a database, allow searches by ratings,
raters, comments, etc. Run an amazon-style recommendations system:
"You liked the ketchup soup,
therefore tonight try the mustard sammich
or the hawg brains."
Franchise, retire, buy that island.

I don't want that island. I want another one. |

Damn, I thought you were talking about a place for me to hang out. |

I too thought that [mcd] had gone for a very niche market. Nice idea though. |
|
|
When supplies are low I sometimes try to google a recipie by typing in whatever's in the fridge. Some of the results defy belief (I never tried that chicken cake). |

Hey, yeah, you've got a great name for a franchise there, [mcdonald107] |

A decent cook can get a good idea whether a recipe is likely to be good just by reading it. Should filter out the 90% bads. |

Perhaps we need a "HalfMachineShop" for recipe development. Offer nuts and washers rather than crossaints and fishbones. |
