Besides that, taste is only a small part of the experience of eating something. You can't use an algorithm to cook good food if it has no reference to smell, texture, appearance, psychology, nutrition, culture, etc. You don't even really decide what to eat unless you put effort into the decision, your gut mostly drives you around via the vagus nerve. So a good recipe needs to appeal to your gut perhaps more than it appeals to you.
