A Reporter Tried Cooking Actual AI-Generated Recipes and the Results Are Stomach-Churning

Mia Mercado at The Cut tested recipes produced by AI.

A TikTok recipe video for cottage cheese breadsticks was entirely AI-generated.

After blending cottage cheese with an egg and mozzarella, the batter remained loose.

The breadsticks fell apart when twisted, tasted like a weird omelet, and received 0 out of 5 AI-generated thumbs.

The spicy buffalo chickpea wraps earned four out of five thumbs but Mercado says that recipe was likely stolen from Minimalist Baker; a fettuccine with pineapple-cashew cream sauce appeared to be an original AI creation.
