    Because it might work if you don’t enter that your leftover ingredients are bleach and ammonia.

      If it can’t discern bleach from ingredients, the actual recipes are probably quite bad too. Another example recipe in the article suggests it’s just throwing any ingredient you give it into a random recipe, substituting in literally anything indiscriminately. So it doesn’t work for the purpose of generating useful recipes.

      Fun automated madlibs game tho

      You do realise they still have to put warning labels on bleach so people don’t drink or inject it?

      Yeah, maybe a tool that generates recipicts but has no concept of what eatable ingredents are, is not a good idea regardless of stupid users.

      It shouldn’t even let you enter in stuff like that, since it’s not food.
