Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

PB&J Matches the User with People Based on Food Swipes

— February 6, 2018 — Lifestyle
Dating apps have changed the dynamic of the users' interactions with friends and possible suitors. PB&J is about to innovate the way one meets them as well. While Tinder and Bumble rely on pretty similar algorithms -- swiping on people's pictures -- PB&J is a mobile platform that allows user to swipe on delicious looking food and later uses the data to match people with similar culinary tastes.

The dating app allows users to post pictures of a plate they are passionate about. Through a series of algorithms, PB&J tracks profile preference and likes and ultimately connects two people in the end. Essentially, the goal is to bring a community, friends or even potential love interests together to indulge in mindful and delicious culinary experiences.
