DALLAS — Instead of tossing leftover pastries and surplus meals, some Dallas bakeries and restaurants are now selling them at discounted rates to reduce food waste.
Mystery bags of baked goods, groceries and prepared meals from more than 95 local food businesses can now be purchased from a new-to-Dallas app called Too Good To Go.
The bags are sold for a third of the cost of the retail value, typically ranging from $3.99 to $5.99 depending on what’s inside. Allie Denberg, head of strategy and planning for Too Good to Go, says customers pick which businesses they want to order bags from, but they don’t pick what’s inside. That’s the fun of it, she says.
