Abstract

Food holds significant importance in human existence, serving as the source of energy, as well as the cultural expression, media, and identity of a nation. Currently, gastronomy, or the art of cooking, has gained greater popularity, fueled by an awareness of the importance of healthy and delicious food, along with easy access to culinary information from around the world. Following this popularity, questions concerning the most tasty meal arise, but the answer is subjective in nature. Therefore, this study adopts a novel approach that combines artificial intelligence (AI), consisting of ChatGPT, Bard, and Google Trends, to identify the best global cuisine. The garnered data from Chat GPT and Bard were further analyzed qualitatively, while a quantitative approach was performed on data from Google Trends showing the most popular cuisine globally. The results indicated the five most delicious foods in the world based on Google Trends data, including pasta, sushi, ramen, tacos, and curry. These results differ from ChatGPT and Bard's preferences, where sushi topped the list. The results provide objective guidance for food lovers and the culinary industry and demonstrate the potential of combining qualitative and quantitative approaches in culinary research.
