What to eat wheel

The wheel arrives pre-loaded with common dinner options so you can spin straight away. Editing the list to match what is actually open, or what is in the fridge, is what makes the answer usable.

8 options on the wheel

How to use

  1. 1.Spin as it is to pick from the default list of meals.
  2. 2.Or replace the list with your real options: the places that deliver to you right now, or what you have ingredients for.
  3. 3.If a result is a no, delete that line and spin again. Shrinking the list is part of deciding.

Why a wheel beats a group chat

The usual problem is not a lack of options, it is that nobody wants to be responsible for the choice. A wheel moves the decision off the people in the room. In a group the thing that actually works is agreeing the list first and spinning once: it is the second spin that restarts the argument.

Start from a list you can actually eat

A default list is a starting point, not the answer. Thirty seconds spent typing the five places that deliver to your address at this hour turns a theoretical result into one you can act on. The filters worth applying before you spin are what is open now, what fits the budget, and what everyone eating can actually eat.

Breaking a tie between two

With two options a wheel is theatre: the coin flip is faster and exactly as random. A wheel starts earning its keep at around four options, where a coin cannot help and ranking them by hand is tedious.

Frequently asked questions

What is on the wheel by default?

A short list of common dinner categories — pizza, sushi, burgers, Thai, pasta, tacos, ramen and a salad bowl. It is there so you can spin immediately; editing it is expected.

Can I save my list for next time?

No. Nothing is stored here or on a server, so the list resets when the tab closes. Keeping it in a note on your phone and pasting it in takes a few seconds.

Does it suggest restaurants near me?

No. It does not know where you are and makes no request to find out. It only shuffles the lines you type.

Can two people spin the same wheel?

Not the same spin — each browser has its own copy, so two people pressing spin get two unrelated results. A shared draw where everyone sees the same outcome needs something that keeps a record, like the comment picker linked below.

Running a giveaway on an Instagram post?

The comment picker reads the post, counts the entries and produces a public verification page with a code anyone can open — things a list pasted by hand cannot prove. Free up to 100 comments.
