Short Description:
Imagine knowing exactly what you have in the refrigerator without going to look.
Now imagine knowing exactly which of your favorite meals you can make. Then
getting a prebuilt list of things to get next time you go grocery shopping. This
and more!
Full Description:
The idea is that the site is able to see what you’ve purchased from the grocery
store either by getting and parsing the receipt, or by somehow getting that
purchase data using your club card. At worst you enter it by hand, but that
makes this not very viable.
Once the system magically knows what you’ve bought, you can set rules for
automatic decrements of various things, or you can manually say you’ve “used”
something. This way it roughly to exactly knows what you have at any point in
time.
Now if you enter in your favorite meals and their ingredients, it can tell you,
in order of your preference, what you can make. It can also tell you what you’re
missing to cook your favorite dish. Imagine driving home, texting the system and
it tells you what you can make when you get home, and what you can make if you
pick up milk on the way.
It can also go as far as now keep track of information about your nutrient
consumption. It can also obviously make you shopping lists. Text it on the way
home and see what you should pick up. Let others in the household append to the
list.
What else can you do with this basic system in place?
