This app doesn't seem to be as popular in the US as in Europe. But I thought it was pretty amazing how they were able to basically create a collective of retailers and stores that want to sell their day old food rather than throw it in the trash. We REALLY need something like this in the US in every city.

I’ve used it a few times here in Europe. Restaurants and Hotels can be hit or miss with the stuff you get, but the grocery bags have been decent. Great for smoothie making! You just need a decent amount of freezer space if you get a bunch of bread lol.

I haven’t tried the delivery feature yet though.
