### 5/5 — I didn’t realise how much food I was forgetting about

*2026-09-28*

I got QR Pantry because I wanted a better way to keep track of the food we already had, but I didn’t realise how much I was relying on memory until I started using it. Things disappear into the back of the freezer or pantry so easily, and then you either completely forget about them or end up buying them again by mistake.

The labels are probably my favourite part. I tried a test pack and loved how easy it was to tag leftovers and batch-cooked meals in the freezer. It saves me having to rewrite all the details on every container, and I also love that it sends reminders before food expires so things don’t just sit there forgotten.

The labels stay on the same containers and are dishwasher safe, so I just update what’s inside as I go.

As a mum of two, I feel like I’m constantly cooking, shopping or figuring out what we already have at home. Being able to quickly check the app while I’m at the shops is surprisingly useful - and has definitely stopped me buying quite so many duplicates (I’m looking at you, three packets of Arborio rice 😂).

It’s one of those things that makes you realise how much food you were trying to keep track of in your head.

### 5/5 — Great Idea, now even better as an app

*2026-09-25*

I find QRPantry particularly useful for someone like me who is forever finding myself in woolworths having wandered in unplanned due to its proximity to local strip mall. Was there the other day thinking I might make one of my typical quick dishes but had no idea what ingredients I have at home already and what I might be missing. Fired up QRPantry, brought up my recipe and QRPantry was able to show me what ingredients I am missing. No more wasting money on buying pantry items you already have “just in case”. Even checked what might be expiring soon whilst I was at it to top up on other items. Great idea well implemented as its so easy to use even when on the go.
