The increased variety of urban lifestyles and food has pushed demand towards unsustainable food waste. In the United States, 40% of food is wasted—that’s equivalent to about $165 billion per year. Impulse and bulk food purchases are part of food waste due to food spoilage before it can be used. By changing consumer’s behavior, this thesis attempts to reduce food waste because consumers forgot was in the fridge. One simple way to tackle the challenge of food waste is by increasing consumer efficiency in planning meals.
