PROBLEM
AND PURPOSE
I often forget which food I have in my
refrigerator and pantry. I sometimes will forget for long enough that some
foods will expire and spoil. Other times, I will run out of something and
forget about it. Then I return home, only to discover that I need that one item
that I ran out of a couple of weeks ago and had since forgotten about it. This
problem extends to food storage. As a student, I don’t have much food storage.
However, my parents do have a food storage and while I was growing up I was
able to see the pain point of not remembering everything that is in food
storage, or if it may expire soon. What’s In My Kitchen will track all food items,
including their quantity and expiration date, so that food is not wasted, and
shopping trips are efficient. There is another feature included within this
program that will allow the management of recipes. I can create a recipe,
complete with the instructions and the foods required. The foods required can
be selected from a list of foods that have been added to the Inventory
spreadsheet database. Both the recipe and items lists can be printed out with
the click of a button. This is a program that can eventually be ported to a
mobile application, and it is targeted towards anyone with a kitchen with a
stronger focus on stay-at-home moms.
