This article explores various innovative apps designed to reduce food waste by connecting consumers with surplus food from restaurants and grocery stores. These apps aim to make it easier for consumers to purchase food that would otherwise go to waste, often at a discounted price. Examples include apps that offer leftover meals from restaurants and unsold groceries from stores. These solutions are having a positive impact on reducing food waste and promoting more sustainable consumption patterns.
