I just tested an app that let's you pay $3.99 to get a bag of food about to go in the dumpster: https://www.toogoodtogo.com/

they should set fake dumpsters around the place (refrigerated obviously) where people can go and pick up this food while also getting the authentic dumpster diving experience
Is this really the same thing though? My family uses that app pretty regularly, and for us at least, it stops us from going out to restaurant or something instead.

It's not replacing dumpster-diving, nor would I consider myself to be part of dumpster-diving subculture. I don't talk about it to my friends. It's just cheap food.

I guess I was wrong. What a world .
