In the US, young adults ages 18 to 24, waste more food than any other age group (Nikolaus et al., 2018); this stems from many factors including lack of time or ideas for cooking due to busy academic, work, and social schedules. What You Got Left? is an interactive website aimed to tackle food waste at an individual level. Users can input and share ingredients, track expiration dates, and generate diverse recipes. Through our recipe inventory and generation features, we hope to bring awareness to the ingredients we have at our disposal to eat healthier, reduce waste, and live sustainably.
