When the world is formatted by algorithms, only the fireworks on the stove can rekindle the human soul.
In the year 2039 AD, taste becomes a sin.
In the tenth year since the "Taste Purification Act" was implemented, the giant enterprise [Entropy Reduction Technology] and its super AI "Darwin" ruled the world. In order to eliminate the chaos caused by human desires, they promote colorless and odorless "perfect nutritional paste" and use gene lock and nerve blocking technology to turn human society into a sophisticated, efficient but dead machine.
Jiang Yidao, a down-and-out chef who has lost his sense of taste, guards a small restaurant on the verge of bankruptcy and uses banned natural ingredients to fight against the tide of the times. Jiang Ke, the former chief architect of [Entropy Reduction Technology] and Jiang Yidao's "rebellious son", tried to use cold codes to parse the taste memory left by his mother.
When the father and son were forced into desperation and fled to the ruins underground in the city, a revolution about "eating" quietly broke out.
Here, they get acquainted with a violent butcher holding a serrated knife, a Mohist geek who uses an umbrella as a soldier, a peerless singer who has lost her voice, and a scavenger boy with a gift of smell. They used graphics cards to modify stoves, used nuclear batteries to stew braised pork, and used quantum entanglement principles to deconstruct boiled cabbage.
From the "Thunder-Fire Fat Sausage" in the underground city, to the "Blind Sliced Noodles" in the arena, to the "Lights of Ten Thousand Houses" under the Tower of Babel. Using spatulas as swords and scents as flags, they launched a final charge against the almighty "god".
"If the world is a cold prison, then the stove is the only way out."
