Top 50 Food Apps for Moms
Whether you're placating hungry kiddos, planning the week's menu, or getting ready for an all-too-rare date night, you're constantly answering the question: What's for dinner? Luckily, with its ability to keep you organized, map store routes, and gather reviews and recipes in seconds, your smartphone was built to solve this daily dilemma.
For Babble's roundup of the top 50 iPhone, iPad, and Android food apps for moms, we tried to cover the range of food-related thinking: from grocery shopping to meal preparation, all the way to food allergies and other dietary specifics that might be concerns for your family. In the end we were happy to find that many of our picks were available across not just the iPhone and iPad, but also the Android - because, unlike smartphone preferences, the love of a good meal is universal. We've broken down our top 50 food apps by category, price, and platform (iPhone, iPad, Android, or all of the above). We tried to find free versions of the apps wherever possible, but the truth is, many free apps either include ads or limit the number of features you can use. So if the paid version of an app felt stronger, then that's the app we recommended. We hope you have as much fun checking these out as we did testing them.

Seafood Watch
Created by California’s Monterey Bay Aquarium, one of the U.S.’ leading authorities on sustainable seafood, Seafood Watch aims to keep you informed on the ocean-friendliest seafood options – as well as the ones to avoid – both in stores and at your favorite restaurant or sushi bar. The app also includes a feature called Project FishMap, which lets you add local stores and restaurants to its growing national database. You can search by fish species or by common market name (the names on your favorite sushi menu, for instance), and if you discover that your favorite catch isn’t on Seafood Watch’s “Best Choice,” the app also provides a range of equally delicious alternatives.
