Guys, I found a use case for my 10$/m LLM Server: Cooking

Key Points

  • The author describes using a low-cost (~$10/month) local LLM server to decide what to cook by photographing random food received from To Good 2 Go.
  • They ask Qwen 3.5 128B for cooking instructions, noting they have little to no cooking experience.
  • The reported results so far are positive, with no food poisoning incidents mentioned and at least one specific dish outcome (grilled chicken sticks).
  • The post frames this as a practical, everyday use case for LLMs beyond typical productivity or coding tasks.

Basically, I use To Good 2 Go a lot, get random food, take a photo and ask Qwen 3.5 128B what the fuck to cook.
Beyond pasta and pizza, I have zero cooking skills.

So far, god bless, no food poisoning yet.
Today we had grilled chicken sticks.
