Every kid's food quirks on file, and the week's meal plan comes fast

One won't eat this, another loves that. They keep each family member's preferences in ChatGPT and nail down the week's meals quickly. Now the slowest part is Walmart's website.

“I already feed ChatGPT my family' preferences (e.g. Kid A doesn't eat X Y Z and liked meal A B C, kid B likes ...) and ChatGPT is helping me build meal plans.”

What they did

They get groceries delivered through a Walmart delivery pass and wanted AI to curate meal planning around their family’s preferences. They feed ChatGPT each kid’s likes and dislikes, such as foods one won’t eat and meals another one enjoys, and ask it to help build the week’s meal plan.

How it went

With those preferences on file, they can quickly nail down a meal plan for the week; the slow part that’s left is manually working through Walmart’s own site to place the order.

Try it yourself with ChatGPT
Give ChatGPT a running list of each family member's food preferences and restrictions, such as favorite meals, foods they refuse to eat, and allergies. Ask it to put together a week's meal plan that works for everyone, and reuse the same preference list each week so you only need to tweak it as tastes change.
