arXiv:2610.02599v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sustainable protein discovery lacks the fast computational proxies, analogous to molecular docking or density functional theory, that accelerate drug and materials discovery. Evaluating whether a novel food tastes like its animal-based target requires expensive human sensory panels, bottlenecking the design-build-test loop. We introduce TasteBench, a multimodal benchmark and privacy-preserving competition for sensory prediction, spanning two tasks: a food-level ranking task built on 21K+ human evaluations across 215 plant-based foods in 24 product categories, yielding 935 within-category ranking pairs, and a supporting molecular-level taste cla
