Here’s how you can get a ‘surprise bag’ of cheap food from Whole Foods

Too Good To Go is now at more than 450 Whole Foods stores, a big expansion of both companies’ efforts to divert food waste.

In the United States, between 30% and 40% of all food produced is wasted, and grocery stores can be a major contributor. Whether it’s packaged items past their sell-by date, bruised produce, or leftover bakery goods, one estimate says grocery stores generate nearly 5 million tons of surplus food a year.
