Food for All is an excellent app for those looking to support their favorite restaurants while being mindful of their budget and their wallet. The app, which is available for both [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ethical-barcode) and Android, allows you to save at least 50% of menu items and save food that would otherwise go to the landfill.

The [discounted food app](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/expiremate) works simply—you choose a restaurant and cafe that has some extra meals close to you. Reservation and payments happen through the app and then you need to just pick up your meal, usually about an hour before the restaurant closes. As a result, the service is convenient and completely fuss-free.

Apps like Food for All are the result of contemporary consciousness about the state of climate change and increasing global food scarcity.
