A new money saving and environmentally beneficial smart kitchen app is due to be launched today which is World Environment Day. EatBy promises to save it’s users up to $1,000 every year and help reduce food waste.
Husband and wife Steffan and Barbara Lewis have been working on the EatBy project from their home in Scotland for over a year and a half. Their passion for finding a solution to the environmental issues surrounding food waste has grown since the project began. The app attacks the problem of food waste. The average household wastes $80 every month on un eaten food. With over 123 million U.S. households that’s $9,840,000,000. With an equivalent amount in Europe, that’s a staggering $236 Billion each year. It’s known that about one third of all food produced is discarded. This amounts to 1.3 billion tonnes of wasted food contributing 10% of greenhouse gasses. That’s where EatBy comes in. It is a simple to use Smart Kitchen App that effectively helps manage the food in your kitchen and lets you know when food items expire. The optional integrated shopping list will also help reduce buying too much food in the first place.
The Android version is being rolled out today and the iOS version will be launched later this month. It will be free to download and use with an optional shopping list that can be activated with an in app purchase. When the iOS version rolls out, I’ll be testing it along with my wife. Watch for that.
