Frequently asked questions

Are these weekly menus really free?

Yes, totally, and with no account. You can browse them, borrow ideas, and generate your own: either Popotam handles it in about thirty seconds, or you use your own ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini account. Either way, nothing to pay.

Which menu should I start with?

Start with the number of people, since it shapes the quantities the most, then fine-tune with your budget or the time you have from the menu's page.

How do you make a weekly menu?

First pick a format (number of people, budget, time you have), then lay out 14 meals, lunch and dinner over 7 days, reusing the same ingredients from one dish to the next. Finish with the grocery list grouped by aisle: that's what makes sure the week holds up.

How do I get the grocery list?

Every menu on this site comes with one, already sorted by aisle. With Popotam, you can also generate your own from your own meals: you check it off as you go and it shows the budget you have left.

Is Popotam really free?

Yes, and with no subscription. Two ways to generate, your pick: Popotam handles it itself, which costs it less than a cent, or you use your own ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini account, which costs it nothing. No ads, no selling your data, no commission on your groceries.

Do I need to create an account?

Nope. No sign-up, no email, no ads. Your meal plan lives online, behind a secret link only you know.
