I photographed everything in my fridge and everything in my cupboards and uploaded it to an LLM and photographed by shopping receipts and asked it to create weight loss meal plans based on my existing shopping and food buying habits.

Worked real nice.

Did I make it into a business? Should everything be a SAAS? Nah.

I'd pay you for that. Take my money you SaaS!

Why? Just drop the pics into CHatGPT and say "make me a weight loss meal plan based on what I have in the fridge and the cupboards"

You could make a website that does that in a couple of hours.

		But then I need it to do the web order as well finding the correct products so things get delivered. After that I need it to tell how to organize the bag into the fridge.. Ideally I'd have meta AI glasses or similar to that. I can use ChatGPT once for doing all that, but then I need it all automated and a fluid experience. My ADHD brain doesn't trigger dopamine for doing the same thing twice.

What's a good LLM for this kind of task?

		Gemini 2.5 Flash works quite well for it.

I mean the llm you used is a saas. But the question is whether a framework for doing this has value (I think it does)

I then added on an SMS message that tells me things I COULD eat at every meal time. It does not say what I must eat, only presents options - I don't like being told what I must eat, all I want to know is what's the best choices of what I have, then I can choose.

  Time for Lunch.
  Choose one of:
  ---
  Tuna salad: 1/2 cup tuna (drained) + 3 cups salad greens + 1/2 cup beetroot + vinegar/lemon (≈850 kJ)
  ---
  Egg salad: 2 boiled eggs (chopped) + 3 cups salad veg + 1/4 cup grated cheese (≈1000 kJ)
  ---
  Chicken salad bowl: 1/2 cup cooked chicken pieces + 3 cups salad veg (≈950 kJ)
  ---
  Minestrone soup: 2 cups (≈1060 kJ)
  ---
  Creamy chicken soup: 2 cups (≈1090 kJ)

		I think it's kind of like AI coding, you can do an awful lot just in the chat with chatgpt but there's a lot of advantage of a framework like cursor/claude code to manage more complicated context and run things for you. For this case maybe recipe gen is something you want more control over and are ok managing the context of things in your pantry and other stuff in your head. But I think if the context of things like your pantry was indexed really well there'd be a huge advantage in having a framework beyond chatgpt messages.
