I'm planning a piece of software that will represent flavor combinations—something that would allow you to look up "peanut butter" and give you back a matrix that tells you that peanut butter goes with chocolate, that it goes with bananas, that it goes with celery, and that it goes with both chocolate and bananas together, but celery is not part of that combination.
The software will be free and open source, so I'm not trying to weasel good ideas to get rich; I want to create a fun and useful tool that everybody can use.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on what the matrix should look like and how it should be interacted with! For instance, should it try to show a large, comprehensive matrix with ever related flavor? Should it suggest related flavors which you can then choose from and generate a limited, custom matrix of those ingredients? If you'd be kind enough to say in your comment whether you're a food professional, home cook, or rank amateur, I can get a better idea of what different kinds of people want.
Thanks!
