What happens when artificial intelligence enters the kitchen? AI knows millions of recipes, but it has never tasted a tomato. And yet, it might change the way we cook. Can a machine that has never smelled fresh basil, tasted a perfectly ripe peach, or burned its fingers on a hot pan help us become more creative cooks? Can AI invent genuinely new dishes, or does it simply rearrange what humans have already discovered? And what happens to culinary traditions, intuition, and the pleasure of cooking when artificial intelligence becomes part of the creative process? I Have Never Tasted a Tomato explores these questions through conversations with chefs, food writers, researchers, sensory scientists, and people who are experimenting with AI in real kitchens. Hosted by Holger Nauheimer, the podcast moves between the science of flavour, the art of cooking, and the deeply personal experiences that shape our relationship with food. Childhood memories, family recipes, spectacular failures, unexpected discoveries, and the dishes we never forget are just as important as algorithms and artificial intelligence. A podcast about AI and cooking. But above all, about being human.
