I don't think the majority of people using too good to go are poor though tbh, no idea about olio, but getting a discounted bag of Starbucks sandwiches or sushi from yosushi isn't even particularly cheap, it is cheaper(and generally more nutritious) to make a proper mealThe trend of rich folk using apps like that never sat well with me tbh.
Just cause most people do it doesn't make it good tho? I just find it distasteful to see someone who earns a shit ton of money and will happily spend hundreds on pretentious food and take one bite, taking advantage of a service like that just so she can see how many bargain pastries she can get. I wish the businesses would donate it all to the homeless but even if that can't happen for whatever reason, I at least wish it would be left for your average Joe who would benefit from a bit of money off instead. It's just influencer culture isn't it, taking stuff you don't need and can easily afford yourself 10x over, just because you can. Think it's scummy and when her channel is 99% boasting about how much money she spends on posh food, it seems even worse to me.I don't think the majority of people using too good to go are poor though tbh, no idea about olio, but getting a discounted bag of Starbucks sandwiches or sushi from yosushi isn't even particularly cheap, it is cheaper(and generally more nutritious) to make a proper meal
Yeah it’s giving alfie deyes doing the 24 hour 1 pound “challenge”Just cause most people do it doesn't make it good tho?

Grace to stop being a grabby twat and pay for her food herself?Too good to go was made to avoid food waste, not to give food waste for cheap to poor people though. What is a problem however is that, at least in my country, that food waste would previously go to food banks and now the food banks have big problems with food shortages as a result. The people who need to food bank can often not even pay for the too good to go boxes and THAT is a problem. But that is not really a problem easily solved.
I do, however, think it's up to the people using it to be considerate towards others. I haven't struggled financially before so even though I saw good deals I didn't get them because I always hoped someone with a smaller budget would get the good boxes. Lately I'm struggling financially so I'm thinking of buying some fruit and veg boxes because that would help me a lot. Currently still trying with whatever is on sale, but with the inflation and energy prices and everything I am not sure how long I'll be able to continue.
I have not a solution to this problem, but as for Grace I always thought it was a bit odd that she would get those too good to go boxes but also buy expensive tea or cookies.
What do you guys think would be a good solution to these problems? I don't really think we can blame too good to go because it was never their intention to be for poorer people.
I think more of a problem than too good to go or whatever is all the stuff she is gifted. Any company gifting food to influencers in this climate is a disgrace. If I was her I would be giving all the top.good to go stuff to homeless people after I had looked.at it (not opened it obv)Grace to stop being a grabby twat and pay for her food herself?
Agree it’s nothing to do with toogoodtogo - they’re doing a great thing.Too good to go was made to avoid food waste, not to give food waste for cheap to poor people though.

I think for me it gets my back up so much with Grace because her entire content is based around the disgusting amount of money she spends on (pretentious) food she barely touches. So to see her getting food she doesn't need for free, when people are literally having to choose between eating and warming their homes, makes my blood boil. Gifted tat she gets doesn't bother me as much because that isn't a necessity, it's just shit. I agree with gifted food though.I think more of a problem than too good to go or whatever is all the stuff she is gifted. Any company gifting food to influencers in this climate is a disgrace.

I know most companies probably just threw away the food now going tonthese apps, but pretty used to give all their leftovers to homeless charities/shelters and it is awful they are not still doing so.
Yeh very true, this is the problem with her content now, it is just about consumption . She used to have interesting creative ideas, that has all gone nowI think for me it gets my back up so much with Grace because her entire content is based around the disgusting amount of money she spends on (pretentious) food she barely touches.

Happens to them all it seemsYeh very true, this is the problem with her content now, it is just about consumption . She used to have interesting creative ideas, that has all gone now
She takes a couple bites and either bins it or gives it to family (especially in the case of the burger she kept having to get).Also is she doing these all in the same day? Im sure she doesnt eat everything she gets..
Yeah the oh wow little old me? Act is bullshit now Grace. You have loads of followers and your always on the beg. It’s about as surprising as rain in November.So sick of grace always begging for freebies and then acting super shocked when she gets sent a pr box like just cut the shit already
Yeh exactly, she is sent things every time she mentiona a brand (exceot for jelly cta i guess, that must be killing herYeah the oh wow little old me? Act is bullshit now Grace. You have loads of followers and your always on the beg. It’s about as surprising as rain in November.
