It will only work at fast food.

Never work for fine dining unless technology advances alot.

Your ingredients change from batch to batch. Are these tomatoes overly sweet or bitter. Is this garlic mild or pungent. That is what you pay for in a fine dining restaurant among other things is a palatte. How much salt, acid, sweetener do you add to get a good flavor balance with the ingredients you have in.

In the future, I could see a robot being programmed to "taste" something for balance, but that is so off in the future it isn't funny.

McDonalds on the other hand already has robotic drink machines, and alot more can be done to eliminate humans. A robot with a temperature probe would actually be safer than humans cooking meat. More easy to sterilize.
