"I’m putting this and future recipes on GitHub, and when I get a chance I’ll add data on individual ingredients and nutrients, probably as Ruby hashes and JSON objects."

Why?

Why does everything have to be treated like code?

Who said everything had to be treated like code? I just think recipes benefit from version control, plus I plan to put other stuff in that repo eventually (like Ruby scripts to help you develop your own mixes).

Perhaps so you can tweak it to your tastes, e.g., "extra 10% carbs for me, please."
