The Flavor Trail

The core of Acquired Taste is built and in use by private testers. This includes swipe based food discovery, a global food catalog, cultural passport stamps, and personal food journaling. The MVP will launch publicly on January 1.

Adding richer context to each food so users can learn about its origin, cultural background, ingredients, and how it is traditionally enjoyed.

Refining food journals, honest reactions, and taste history so users can better understand how their preferences change over time.

Expanding quests, milestones, and progress tracking to encourage regular exploration without pressure or judgment.

Connecting foods to recipes and nearby restaurants so users can easily decide what to cook or where to try a dish in real life.

Using learned preferences to surface foods and cuisines that feel relevant while still encouraging curiosity and discovery.

Highlighting traditions, holidays, and regional variations to better explain why foods exist and how they connect to culture.

Growing Acquired Taste into a long term system for food discovery and taste learning that supports new features, partners, and experiences.
