About us

Foodlist was founded by Tomas and Pie Haug, residents of Asker, Norway. Tomas grew up on a small farm in the Norwegian country side. There he learned early that boiled potatoes from yesterday can be eaten today. Tomas and Pie are married and have three children. Families with children are often the worst «offenders» when it comes to creating food waste. Tomas and Pie therefore decided to organize their refrigerator, plan purchases better and make sure the food waste from their home was reduced significantly. Together with some outstanding people we created Foodlist.
