Yummy Kitchen Connect
One of the entries in the current Next-Gen PC Design Competition (held by Microsoft and the Industrial Designers of America) is the Yummy Kitchen Connect, which would use a touchscreen, a barcode scanner and Internet access to to handle everything related to meal planning. The Yummy would be given your diet and favorite recipes, and from there make recommendations based on current pantry stock, which would be scanned in when it was brought home. Shopping lists could be created automatically, and new guides and recipes could be located online. Public voting in the competition is now underway; browse the site to see rival devices.
