Choosing in a foreign supermarket
In a supermarket abroad, or in the international aisle at home, many products are hard to judge from the packet. Photograph a product, or a whole shelf, and Taste10 tells you in your language what it is, what it tastes like and how well it fits your personal taste.
How it works
- Photograph the product: the front, or the front and the back with the ingredients, up to three photos at once.
- Or photograph a whole shelf. Taste10 picks out the products it can see and shows which ones suit you best.
- See what it is, explained in plain words in your language, and a personal score from 0 to 10 with the reason why.
What it helps with
- Labels you cannot read, in Japanese, Thai, Korean, Greek and many other languages.
- Products you have never seen: a snack, a sauce, a drink or a fruit you do not know.
- Choosing between similar products: five kinds of crisps or ten kinds of noodles.
Tips
- Make the front of the pack clearly visible, with the name and the picture.
- Add a photo of the back when you want Taste10 to look at the ingredients too.
- Rate it once you have tried it, so your next scan fits you even better.
