"What's for dinner?" Every family asks it daily. WhatWeEating helps you answer without the back-and-forth. A shared meal-planning grid built for households, not solo cooks. Anyone in the family can suggest a meal, kids react with thumbs-up or thumbs-down, and an adult picks the winner. The Tonight view tells you in one glance what's planned for today — no scrolling, no debating, no last-minute panic at 5pm. Built for households • Shared week grid that everyone sees and updates in real time • Lunch and dinner slots, plus optional kid-and-adult meal variants for when the kitchen splits two ways • Custom labels — call it "tea" if that's what your family says • Light, dark, and three colour themes Family decision-making, not majority rule • Anyone proposes meals to the ideas pool • Kids vote with thumbs up/down • Adults pick from the proposals — no pizza-every-night democracies • Voting modes: free-for-all, or curated (kids see only what adults shortlist) Built for the whole household • Everyone in your family can join in and add ideas — across all your devices, in real time. What it isn't, on purpose • No recipes, ingredient lists, or cooking instructions • No shopping list integration • No nutritional tracking, no macros, no AI dinner generation Great for • Households making the dinner decision at 4:55pm • Families with mixed diets — kids' food vs adult food, dietary requirements • Parents tired of "I don't mind, you decide" Privacy • No ads, no third-party analytics, no tracking • Your data stays between you, your household, and our hosting providers • Delete your account at any time from Settings WhatWeEating — Family dinners, sorted.
