If you’re never heard of Too Good to Go, it’s an app with a business model that goes like this:

Restaurants routinely have food which, at the end of the day or the end of a shift or what have you, they end up throwing away. This is, of course, super wasteful.

Too Good to Go connects restaurants who have extra food with customers looking for deals. The restaurants sell their extras, the customers get a discount, the food isn’t wasted, it’s a great concept.

But how well does it work out? Well, your mileage may vary. Here’s an experience from TikTok user @victoria.scholes:

“My first time ordering from @TooGoodToGo…is this normal lmao,” reads the caption.

They’ve got what appears to be just a normal plastic shopping bag.

Of course, this is a restaurant thing.

Apparently not everyone on the app is jazzed about it.

Personally, I’m split.

While I do think this is pretty ridiculous, and that the restaurant could definitely have put this in some kind of box instead, I also don’t think the quality of the food is going to be altered by it being in a plastic bag for 10 minutes.

I guess what I’m saying is, if the price is right, I’m in.
