Refrigerator Rummage

Inspiration

On a rare occasion, I opened the vegetable section in my refrigerator. Looking at all the vegetables inside I realized I had no idea what to do with them or how my mother managed to prepare a wonderful lunch from all that confusion. So, I created Refrigerator Rummage.

What it does

Refrigerator Rummage displays recipes for the ingredients entered by the user.

How we built it

I wrote this in python 3. It uses a googlesearch API to collect relevant links and requests library, BeautifulSoup, and TF-IDF to organize them.

Challenges we ran into

First, the program seemed to take way too long and a lot of sites threw exceptions.
