I’ve waxed poetic before on my impressions of how useful the iPad is in the kitchen. It’s a fantastic multi-purpose tool that makes spending time in the kitchen both illuminating and entertaining.
TUAW (The Unofficial Apple Weblog) brings news today that Apple is giving that functionality greater recognition by adding a new category to the App Store for food and drink. The category will shift any applicable apps from their current place in the Lifestyle section, but will not include dieting, coupon clipping, game-related, or shopping applications.
I’m looking forward to having a dedicated section of the app store containing my coveted epicurean information. It took me quite a while to discover just how much fun creating meals can be; if you haven’t tried yet I urge you to grab your favorite iOS device and give it a try!
