Exciting to bring tastebase to the Product Hunt community! It is a new gamified platform for snack fans and snack makers to discover the best new products in food and beverage. They’re helping bridge the growing gap for snack fans between what we see (aesthetics) and what we eat (taste). Drop your thoughts and feedback here and let the makers know about it!

Thank you @5harath for hunting tastebase! Let’s get dive in and get snackin. Today we're excited to announce tastebase, a new snack matching site. Say goodbye to bad snacks. Discover your next tasty adventure through tastebase’s daily snack matching algorithm. As avid snack fans, here’s why we started tastebase in the midst of COVID: 🥑 We were hungry for better: stuck at home during the pandemic, our team of snack lovers from Yelp, Philz’ Coffee, and Culture Trip, quickly grew tired of the aesthetic crazed world of Instagram. While we browsed based on branding, we realized we had zero idea about how the products actually tasted. So we wanted to help bridge the growing gap for other snack fans between what we see (aesthetics) and what we eat (taste). 👅 Taste is personal: each of our tastes are so personal to us. But then why were we being fed the same beautifully packaged brands over and over again? With over 20,000 new products each year and so much fluffy marketing, we wanted to clear out all the noise and personalize the experience based on our unique taste profile. 📍 An honest space: we wanted an honest space that focused on the #1 thing that mattered most to us, taste. Movies had Rotten Tomatoes, restaurants had Yelp, and books had Amazon. But what about snacks? We’re aiming to build a product that can be your personalized recommendation engine for all things food and beverage products. So no matter what you do or where you are, you can find the perfect snack for the perfect moment with tastebase! We’re hungry to learn, grow, and build an even tastier experience for you. The only way to do that is to hear from you! Thoughts, feedback? Also, what are the best or worst snack brands you’ve tried recently? Which food and beverage brands should be featured on tastebase? We promise to review the top 5 products suggested in the comments! Comment below. 👇🏻

Looks awesome, team. I found Fly by Jing's Sichuan chili sauce on Tastebase and I use it more than anything else in my kitchen!

@brad_schnitzer1 100% worth checking out their Zhong sauce too! Excited to see your reviews. The more reviews, the more snacks you'll be able to unlock ;)

!tastebase looks awesome! There's so many different options and new snacks...if only I could try them all! I like the idea of tastelists as well, but it'd be even better if there were team-recommended lists or ways to show which lists are "best" (outside of just followers). Can't wait to see more!

Love tastebase! My favorite way to try new drinks and snacks that you can’t get anywhere else. They also have cool deals and special items that I like to geek out on. Also has lots of reviews so you can decide what special treat to get!

Tastebase has been a really solid site to play around with. I’m finding a lot of new snacks I didn’t know existed previously — and that means a lot, coming from someone who’s in grocery stores more often than home. Really appreciate the ability to find honest reviews that aren’t driven by some profit-making retailers. I’m excited to see if you guys come up with creative ways for us to directly purchase product from the sites or tell us where to buy them. Would appreciate if more people could find this place and join so I can have some tastemates!

@akaaashhh Thanks Akash. That's our goal - to create a space for fellow food lovers to talk honestly about what's good and what's not and everything in between. Feel free to invite your friends. The more friends you have on tastebase, the more fun (and tasty) it'll become :)
