About the what to eat wheel
The what to eat wheel ends the nightly back-and-forth about food. It covers the takeout and restaurant options most people choose between. Remove anything nobody’s in the mood for, add your local favorites, and spin until something sounds good. Can’t even agree on a cuisine? Choose Cuisines in the "Spin only" menu to spin Italian, Mexican, Ethiopian and 13 more, then pick a restaurant or recipe from it.
Ways to use it
- Settle where to order from when nobody wants to choose.
- Pick a cuisine for date night or a group dinner.
- Break a food rut by letting the wheel pick something you haven’t had in a while.
Ending the "you pick" standoff
The wheel works best when everyone agrees on the rules first: one veto each, then the wheel’s answer stands. Remove anything nobody wants tonight before you spin. If the result makes you groan, that is useful too: spin again and you have learned what you did not want.
Make it your own menu
Replace the list with your local takeout places or the meals you know how to cook, then press "Save" so it is ready every night. Type "Tacos *2" to make a favorite twice as likely, or spin seven times with "Remove winner" on to plan a week of dinners with no repeats.

Frequently asked questions
Can I add my favorite local restaurants?
Yes. Replace any slice with a restaurant name, or clear the list and add only places near you. Click "Share wheel" to send the same list to whoever you’re eating with.
What if we both hate the result?
Tick "Remove winner after each spin" and spin again. Each veto takes that option off the wheel until something sticks.
What should I do after the wheel picks a cuisine?
Pick a restaurant from that cuisine, or open that cuisine’s own wheel on SpinForThat (for example, the Thai food wheel) to choose a dish.
Can I use it as a restaurant or takeout picker?
Yes. Tap Clear, type the restaurants or takeout places near you, and click Save so your list is ready next time. Share the link so everyone spins the same wheel.
