It would be nice to be able to select a recipe and have it populate your shopping list based on what is currently in your cupboards. If you just chuck stuff in the cupboards then you have to be home to know what they contain.

Or you could wear it while you cook and it could give you nutrition information for whatever it is you cooked. Armed with that it could make recommendations about what nutrients you're likely deficient in based on your recent meals and suggest recipes to remedy the gap--recipes based on what it knows is already in the cupboard.

Maybe I’m showing my age, but isn’t this a home ec class?

		I took home ec in 2001. I learned to use a sewing machine, it was great. But none of the kitchen stuff we learned had anything to do with ensuring that this week's shopping list ensures that you'll get enough zinc next week, or the kind of prep that uses the other half of yesterday's cauliflower in tomorrow's dinner so that it doesn't go bad. These aren't hard problems to solve if you've got time to plan, but they are hard to solve if you are currently at the grocery store and can't remember that you've got a half a cauliflower that needs an associated recipe.
