Food waste app - for Android & iOS

Food waste is a major problem that some apps and websites are now tackling. They are not only committed to a good cause, but also help you save money.

Too Good To Go: Cheap from supermarket and restaurant

An estimated 30 to 50 percent of the food ends up in the trash. Restaurants, supermarkets, bakeries and farmers whose goods do not meet the applicable standards remain on them and must dispose of them accordingly. Apps like "Too Good To Go" and websites like foodsharing.de, on which such products are offered, help to counteract the problem of food waste.

• With the "Too good to go" app you can find out which restaurants, bakeries and supermarkets deliver food for a fraction of the money at what time.
• Registration is free. The app is available for iOS and Android. Payment is made via PayPal or your credit card.
• You will receive a receipt after purchase, which you must redeem on the same day at a specific time window. Mostly, this time window is 15 to 30 minutes before the shop closes.
• Some providers have a changing offer, so you don't necessarily know what you are getting. In some restaurants you can choose your meal from the buffet or the serving.

Foodsharing.de against food waste in the household

At foodsharing.de private individuals can offer food that you do not need yourself. Companies also cooperate and open the doors to voluntary food rescuers outside of opening hours so that they can take away the good food that is no longer declared as being salable.

• The food can then be picked up by other users of the site.
• This can help prevent food from going bad in your own fridge.
• You can also get involved as a food saver. You can find more information on the foodsharing website.
