Taste Don'T Waste

Taste Don’t Waste (TDW) is a mobile application aiming to reduce household food waste whilst helping users save time and money. TDW does this by using AI and automation to digitise and consolidate user's kitchen management experience. In doing so, TDW can leverage unique access to currently inaccessible end-of-life Scope 3 emissions data. Through this data, TDW can help corporate partners understand and report on their emissions, reach their climate objectives and simultaneously build loyal customer relationships. How it works: The TDW app takes a holistic, automated approach to kitchen management, improving how users plan, buy, track and cook their food to help them have their kitchens at their fingertips. Users are recommended recipes based on their kitchen inventory. Once chosen, any missing ingredients are automatically added to the user’s smart shopping list. The user can then easily upload their purchase by scanning a picture of their receipt, and the items’ expiration is predicted. If any ingredients are not allocated to a meal, users will be notified 72 hours before they expire and are recommended meals in which they can be used involving other ingredients already in the kitchen. Throughout this circular process, TDW can gather valuable real-time insights into user behaviour, purchasing habits and household food waste, vastly improving our partners’ emissions reporting and waste mitigation strategies while enabling long-lasting customer relationships.
