[Data-modeling] Food (was Re: Sex)

[Kirrily Robert]

I've now created a personal domain for food, as mentioned in my earlier post about my sex domain.  See http://www.freebase.com/view/user/skud/food 

Once again, it's a collection of "buckets" with very few properties, though there are a few around the "Dish" type.  These are all additional to those types already in the common "Food" domain at http://www.freebase.com/view/food and would be added into that domain if promoted.

There's a lot of complexity that could go into this (especially if you start getting into recipes, quantities, nutritional information, and so on) but for now I'd really just like to be able to type things.  Did you know how many topics there are in Freebase like "trifle" and "General Tso's chicken" that are completely typeless?  Criminal!

Comments welcome.  I'm going to try and get "Sex" and my "Food" types both promoted soon.

K.
