Quick answers

Is buying own-brand or cutting food waste the bigger saving?

Waste, for most households. Dutch households bin about 25.5 kg of solid food per person per year, worth roughly EUR 100 per person. Own-brand switching is a real 40 percent gap, but it is a one-time move on part of your basket, while waste recurs every week at full price.

How many dinners should I plan for one week?

Four. Four planned dinners leave room for one leftovers night, one improvised night, and one night that simply does not happen. Seven rigid slots collapse by Wednesday. Choose dishes that share a protein, an aromatic or a herb so nothing gets bought twice.

Does Yumzi work if the video has no caption?

Yes. Yumzi reads the spoken amounts and the on-screen text, not only the caption. If a video does not contain enough to read a recipe from, we tell you rather than guessing quantities. We never invent a dish, and the recipe stays the creator's.
