CES 2018: Ovie Smarterware, refrigerator manager

17 cool gadgets that tease the future. (CNN, 1/16 /2018)

Chicago-based startup Ovie Smarterware is developing food tracking tech. After you tell Amazon's voice assistant technology what you're putting in your fridge, it'll track how many days it can stay fresh. 

But you'll need to strap a little tracker to the food item, and it will turn colors when the cheddar is no longer ideal for eating. Cost: $59 for a set of three.

Or you could take this more economical , old-fashioned approach.
