Why are so many of you trivializing the fact that providing perfectly formatted input data that having set logic figure something out is a VERY different thing than providing a firehose of data and then asking the software to make sense of it? Like have you been paying attention here at all?

In this case I would suppose that there's no need to get firehose of data, especially if run locally. The user only has so many shops around and the fridge is not a factory scale big

Yeah true. I guess I should have said a mish mash of data. It's more about the fact that the data wouldn't necessarily be in some regular format -- the majority of the work you want the machine to do is find and compile that data

Agreed, data regularisation will likely be a pain for this task
