Stop staring at unfamiliar menus. NeverHadIt scans any restaurant menu and color-codes every dish for YOU — GREEN, YELLOW, or RED — based on your taste, dietary preferences, and how adventurous you feel tonight. WHY NEVERHADIT Menu paralysis is real. Ethnic restaurants, unfamiliar cuisines, dishes you can't pronounce — the instinct is to fall back on something "safe" and miss the best the kitchen has to offer. NeverHadIt turns five minutes of confusion into five seconds of clarity. HOW IT WORKS 1. Point your camera at the menu. 2. In seconds, every dish is color-coded for your profile. 3. Tap any dish for a plain-English explanation of what it is and why it got that color. GREEN means "you'll probably love this." YELLOW means "worth considering, with a caveat." RED means "conflicts with your preferences — skip it." PERSONALIZED TO YOU - Set your taste profile once: favorite flavors, spice tolerance, textures you avoid, ingredients you dislike. - Call out ingredients you want to steer clear of. - Slide the Adventure Level dial — conservative to adventurous — and watch the recommendations shift. DISCOVER, DON'T DEFAULT - "If you like yakitori, you'll love these satay skewers." - Pronunciation guides for unfamiliar dishes so you can actually order them. - Cuisine translator: familiar comparisons for dishes you've never tried. - Culinary Passport: every cuisine you try earns a stamp. Track your food journeys over time. TASTE THAT LEARNS After each meal, rate the dishes you tried. NeverHadIt builds a Taste DNA over time — the flavors, textures, and cuisines you actually love. On future scans, you'll see "matches your taste" chips and a top pick tuned to your real preferences.
