Below is a link to information about the Food for All App, which is considered one of the best for helping to reduce Food Waste and your grocery bill. It’s a “win + win” for Planet-Well Being !
All the best for your well-being too!
Every year in February we call attention to Black History and Celebrate the causes and progress that have been made.
Of course, Black History is a continuous topic of re-calculating the plight and progress of African-Americans. Just recently the term “Enslaved” has been a topic of conversations and correctness regarding the lack of entitlement to freedom in the course of the African-American experience.
Sometimes there is an App that serves more than one purpose. In this case I am referring to the app “Too Good To Go” Do you know that fighting food waste also helps the planet by reducing global warming? At the “Too Good To Go” website you can learn all of the details at the food waste knowledge hub. The company was created in Denmark in 2015. Read more at the Wikipedia link.
When you have a moment, I invite you to listen to my podcast:
Surprise Bags have food at one-third its original price.
You can add your favorite stores.
