To be fair that explanation only says that it's hard, expensive, and not worth it. It doesn't say if it's legally possible.

- JohnFen 4y agoTo get a patent, you need to develop something that's not obvious to the average practitioner in the field. I imagine it's pretty hard to come up with a recipe that wouldn't be obvious to the average professional cook. And if you did, it would be pretty easy for someone to alter the recipe in a way that avoids infringement. And let's not even get started on how you'd enforce it. How many restaurants would let you in to observe them cooking? I'm guessing it's legally possible, but in practice it's probably not even close to being worth the effort.
