What we’re about

It’s past time for a meal planning solution that actually makes life easier! One that understands you and your preferences, one that easily adapts to a hectic always changing schedule, and one that grows with you over time so the weekly effort you put into thinking about food is harnessed into a system that reduces your mental load until you realize you can finally just forget about food because that part of life is handled.

Forget About Food has been a long time in the making. It’s existed as a concept in my mind for over two decades, a pipe dream that only recently became viable with the advent of modern AI technologies. When I first started tinkering with grocery list management apps I was a young professional with a busy social life and zero cooking ability. Now, 25 years later, I’m a successful executive, a parent of two school aged kids, and I dare say a competent home chef. And yet somehow though I’ve tried nearly every option available from spreadsheets to software to meal delivery to even hiring a personal chef I never found a meal planning and grocery management solution that actually worked for me and my family week after week, month after month. So I took every good idea I’ve had over the years, reached out through my network of busy working professionals, software gurus, and default parents (often all three) and brought to life a brand new solution to the problem of making food happen.

I personally use Forget About Food every week and it has been a game changer in my life. The website and companion app allow me to meal plan and make a grocery list as well as help check my kitchen inventory, prep food, and cook meals. The amount of time I spend thinking about these things each week has gone from hours to minutes, freeing up my limited mental bandwidth to think about far more important things. I hope it is able to do the same for you!
