750g: the app with 80,000 cooking recipes and… strange tips
Right from the homepage, the tone is set: we are amazed, the photos are magnificent and we advise you not to launch 750g app if you’re peckish, otherwise you’ll find yourself eating your phone or the contents of your fridge.
Easy cooking!
To find what you’re looking for, just do a search, but if you don’t have any particular desire, take a look in the section Top Recipes. Nothing like making your mouth water and finding the recipe that will make you happy. You don’t know what to do with this mascarpone, these leeks or this can of cod liver? Just type an ingredient to get suggestions. The recipes are also classified according to the difficulty, the budget, the time it takes to make them, but also the theme: Slimming, Aperitif, World, Salads, Pasta etc.
Very good ideas and a little too much advertising…
Note that for each recipe you will have the possibility to choose the number of people who will benefit from your chef’s talents, which is very practical to have the right quantity of ingredients and not to crash. A “step-by-step”, a timer and precise advice will also help you to live up to your ambitions.

Advertising, videos and “news”
750g does not require an account to access the recipes, but you will need one if you want to add the recipes you are interested in to your favourites, give ratings etc. We appreciated the many (2000!) video recipes: the player is integrated and you can broadcast the content on an external screen. On the other hand, we regretted the large presence of advertisements on the app which somewhat hinders its use, a paid premium version makes it possible to get rid of the advertisements in question.
Finally, 750g offers a section dedicated to news and tips whose content (also present on the site) is sometimes a little surprising. If advice on freezing zucchini or the art of cooking one’s leftovers could not be more legitimate, there are also curious articles explaining that “the kitchen is still too often a gendered space” what to eat at a “specific time” would endanger your mental health (like gremlins?), that if you eat a lot of red meat, you’re probably a “redneck” or at least sexist and that it is better to think twice before accepting a date with you!
“On dating apps, don’t trust a person’s musical tastes or description anymore. Ask him, point-blank, how much red meat he eats. Does he eat it once a day? Be on your guard before accepting a date. Because, according to the responses of the 2,033 participants in the Ifop study […], the more red meat a man eats, the more likely he is to be sexist. »

There is everything on 750g, even meeting advice to avoid “meat meats who vote for the right or the extreme right” (sic)…
