Share home-cooked meals with neighbors or Facebook friends

OurKitchns is a website that allows home-cooks to share take-away or communal meals with their neighbors or Facebook friends on a suggested donation-basis. A cook can tell his/her story, upload photos, set a suggested donation and a pick-up date/time. We want to create an excuse for friends, neighbors and co-workers to connect over food.

Howdy! This is our first launch! A while back, I left a corporate job to backpack through India, pursue a creative writing project and make a rock-and-roll record. During this weird current season of life, my buddy Bob and I hang out on Sunday nights and watch terrible horror movies together (or The Walking Dead). Inevitably, we get hungry and want to grab food, but the usual suspects – Pei Wei, Subway, Chipotle (pardon the rhyme) – don't really do it for us anymore. We wanted to order authentic home-cooked meals from our talented community of friends. So Bob and I made OurKitchns – a website that lets home-cooks share take-out meals either exclusively with Facebook friends (or with anyone) on a donation-basis. - We are just getting started. We would love for gifted cooks to join the community. It’s easy to join! Kindly tell your friends, neighbors and co-workers who love to cook! - Cooks can post/share meals on the site that are viewable by either their Facebook Friends only - or - the General Public. - The cook sets a pick-up date/time and a suggested donation amount. - The price dialog would default to the suggested donation amount. An Eater can change their donation amount, although we think most people will conform to social norms and pay at least the suggested donation. A couple of notes: - If you want to share a meal with the General Public, you must submit a Food Handlers Certificate. (Takes less than an hour to get one online.) - If you want to just share a meal viewable by just your Facebook Friends, you aren’t required to submit a Food Handlers Certificate. (Why not, you ask? Well, when a friend, neighbor or co-worker invites you over to dinner, you trust them, right?) Please tell us what you think! Our goal is to get people to close their laptops and have a real-life interaction with someone in their community through the sharing of food. Would you order a meal from a Facebook friend or neighbor? What do you think of the suggested donation system? (OH! - And Product Hunters who love to cook – we’re not charging a commission. Sign up and share food! It’s easy! If you’re too shy to share with strangers, you can elect to share take-away food or communal meals with just your Facebook friends.) Thank you!
