This project aimed to obtain a heatmap between different languages Wikipedias and the length of cuisines pages
The obtained matrix/heatmap/table has on the rows different Wikipedia languages and on the rows multiple cuisines of the world. Every cell represents graphically and numerically the length of the page in that specific language
You can find here the post I wrote on this project, with all the interactive graphs!

To have an idea of the interest for different cooking cultures around the world!
(I'm not saying that the length of a Wikipedia page reflects how much a country is interested in a specific foreign cuisine, but it's an indicator that can be taken into account, at least to do some really simple observation) -
To find some unexpected correlation, for example:
"It seems that South-American country X seems to be really interested in cuisines from Asiatic country Y but not from cuisine from Z" -
To have a framework to perform similar analysis in the future
-
Because heatmaps are really nice to look at!
