Not the stuff left on plates, this is food that was prepared but never eaten.

Right after the lunch - dinner rush, (or when the buffet closes), there is usually a bunch of food that was prepared but never eaten or ordered. It's usually thrown out but, thanks to Too Good To Go, it can now be purchased. Cheap!

participating restaurants can now sell the food to customers through the app at prices ranging from £2 (about $2.58) to £3.80 (about $4.89). App users can enter their zip code or let the app access their location to view restaurant options for the evening.  After making their selection, they can pick up their deliciously cheap dinner at a range of designated times.

You can also give money to the app which will then purchase meals for the hungry and the homeless. It's only available in the UK right now but, it's expected to launch here in America soon. Learn more on their Facebook page.
