Social recipe recommendation to reduce food waste.

Little attention has been given to food waste prevention in households by changing consumers' behaviors. In this paper, we present a social recipe recommender which is a mobile application being developed to reduce food waste in households by recommending recipes to a group of connected people. The application will allow the logging of food and waste related daily practices and will persuade a group of users to share their food by recommending recipes based on available ingredients within this group. The method of data collection, persuasion and the experiments are described through this paper.
