Food.com – Recipes, Shopping Lists & Meal Plans App Reviews

This app is lacking nutritional information. I would love to use the recipes but to much work figuring my weight watcher points when you have to figure it individually instead of the meal as a whole.

I absolutely love this app. It saves me so much time and money!

Dont know how I lived without it! It lets you organize your grocery list to be in the order that you shop! It finds recipes for sale items! I upgraded so that I can add unlimited recipes! Totally worth it! Support is awesome too ! Quick response!

Having discovered Food.com online, this app seemed like a great companion for researching new recipes or pulling recipes in my recipe box. After a few uses, however, I noticed that ingredients are double-listed, very frequently. For example, a carrot soup recipe calls for "3 pounds of carrots, or 15 carrots". That is how the recipe is written online. In the app version of the recipe, carrots are included twice, once as "3 pounds" and once as "15 carrots", so a newbie might follow the app instructions to the letter and get a big mess. The same thing (in the same recipe) with the use of "chicken broth or water": Written as an either/or online, listed as two separate ingredients in the app version. To me, this is not just a little flaw, its a glaring error. At being said, the abundance and variety of recipes is a wonderful resource when youre looking for something different to put on the dinner table. I simply go online when I want to use a recipe, and will continue to do so until the issue is addressed and fixed. For that reason, this app is no longer on my device.

I used this app happily for quite a while, until it no longer showed me what sales were happening at any of my stores! Im really bummed about that. I wish youd fix that, because it was my go-to app for all things shopping and cooking Please let me know if you ever fix this! Thanks!

Just what a new cook is looking for.

All I want is an app that suggests recipes and where I can search recipes and this one does that flawlessly. Im happy with it. Ive used the website equivalent for years.

Great app, from finding recipes to planning menu to making a shopping list. You can see whats on sale at your local store and find recipes for those items! Now if only I could make it a habit!

Wonderful App....a great source of recipes.

Very easy app to use. Love the recipes and grocery list

Come on people ! Two of todays featured recipes call for ingredients over 100 lbs ! Please edit !!

Used this app religiously every week UNTIL the suddenly stopped having my local Walmart ad. Ok I can live without the Walmart ad. Then they stopped having my local grocery stores weekly ad. After SIX WEEKS IN A ROW I am deleting it. It makes a decent grocery list when you can browse the ad and select items right to your list. Its just ok when you do not have the weekly ad. I could put up with the crashes and hang ups when they had the ad prices. Sometimes they were incorrect but for the most part they were right. Without any local store info it just isnt very useful. Pretty much like the site. It USED TO BE a great site before Scripps bought it. Now it is just like any other recipe site. Pretty much all pictures without much ability to search. I have better luck finding recipes on Pinterest then Food.com. So sad to see everything they do go from decent to garbage. Probably all because it is cheaper to produce junk. Smh.

This app is great for planning my weekly meals. It lets me find great recipes and date them for my weekly planning. That said, there are some significant challenges. The app is filled with bugs and they dont seem interested in fixing them. The grocery list refuses to let me check off items. If I delete them, they come back. If I delete menu items, they mysteriously reappear. The sales are never right with my local publix. The recipe addition is very buggy. And, the sync with the web site is delayed and has errors.

Use it all the time

Wish there were videoa

Teaching others to cook and how to make a good meal at a low price.

This is such an lovely app. Great recipes with reviews to match

I love this app Ive already tried three recipes from it. And they were delightful.

Ive been using this app since it came out, and even before it was bought by Food.com, so for quite a long time now. All my favorite recipes are saved and I use it weekly to make my meal plan and shopping list. There are some bugs with items reappearing after I check them off my shopping list. And its hard to create a personal recipe that can be scaled to additional servings. I can deal with all that, just minor things. Unfortunately, for over a week now none of my recipes will load except the few I placed in a folder. I cant add any of my saved recipes to a meal plan. I cant view them at all. So I need to manually add all my ingredients to the shopping list each week now. What used to save me so much time, now takes much longer than it should. Hopefully this will be fixed soon so I dont need to look for a new app. I had found some great recipes on here and never bothered to write them down since they were saved in the app. Will take me quite a while to find all of them again.

I have cooked for many years for a large family of big eaters. We are empty nesters and I could not cut back on the amounts leading to a lot of food being discarded. This app has helped make smaller portions and I now measure and we get new exciting meals let is really nice to have.
