The Intro
REASON TO WATCH

You're spending hundreds on groceries every month while perfectly good food gets thrown away. There's a better way.

THE PROMISE

I'm going to show you the food rescue app I used, the community networks I tapped into, and how I ate better than ever - for free.

Point 1

The Food Waste Problem

CONTEXT

40% of food in America goes to landfills. That's $400 billion in waste annually. And people go hungry.

ACTION

There are apps and programs specifically designed to bridge this gap. Most people don't know they exist.

Point 2

The Primary App

CONTEXT

Too Good To Go, Flashfood, and similar apps sell "surplus" food from restaurants and grocery stores for pennies.

ACTION

I'd get $30 worth of food for $3-5. By the second week, I was skipping the $5 too.

Re-Hook

"But the real secret isn't the app..."

Point 3

The Community Network

CONTEXT

Buy Nothing groups, mutual aid networks, and community fridges provided the rest.

ACTION

Search your neighborhood for Buy Nothing groups. Introduce yourself. Contribute when you can.

END
The Outro
HIGH NOTE

I saved $400 and ate better than ever. The food exists. You just need to know where to find it.

FINAL THOUGHT

Every meal you rescue is a meal not rotting in a landfill.

Call To Action

"Download the app today. Comment your first rescue meal."
