New store on the @toogoodtogo.can app, Reesors Chicken & Deli, inside the York Farmers Market selling medium Surprise Bags of organic deli and butcher items for $7.99 (before taxes). 🧀🌭🥛🥩 This Surprise Bag contained: - an expired tub of 3.25% grass fed plain yogurt from Rolling Meadows (expiry date was March 3; this bag was picked up on March 5) 😠👎👎, - danish harvarti 🧀 packaged on Feb 26, - organic medium cheddar 🧀 packaged on Sept 4 🤨🤨🤨 - mystery meat sausage with no label showing ingredients or expiry date 🤔 The mystery meat turned out to be delicious and there was luckily no food poisoning experienced from ingesting the rest of the items. But expired dairy products should not be given in a surprise bag. 👎⚠️ #toogoodtogo #toogoodtogogta #surprisefoodbags #tgtgfoodhauls #fightfoodwaste #foodwastewarriors #latergram (at York Farmers Market) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpu2l8dur4G/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I have been obsessed with rice bowl's lately. They are so easy to make and tasty! On top of being easy to make they also are a great clean out the fridge meal! Every couple of days I go through our fridge to see what ingredients are on their last legs. This way I can use them up and avoid any waste. Not that we waste because we compost but I would rather eat it than the worms! This Greek bowl was made to use up the last of my @laurachenel goat yogurt and a few odds and ends of veggies. First I marinated some chicken in the goat yogurt, lemon and herbs. Baked that up and sliced it onto the bowl. I still had some leftover yogurt so I topped the bowl with a dill goat yogurt sauce. #ricebowl #madefromscratch #justaddlaurachenel #greekbowl #homemade #tumericrice #reducewaste #homecook #nowaste #nowastecooking #yogurtmarinatedchicken #foodie #homecooked #fridgecleanout #goatyogurt #foodphotography #homecooking #dillsauce #fodporn #fightfoodwaste #nourishbowl #easydinner #buddahbowl https://www.instagram.com/p/COBLW1ZlxDg/?igshid=1lrj50l5hkyck

I had a cucumber & some radishes that were on their last days, so I cut them up and added red onion, garlic cloves, peppercorns, a variety of dried herbs, one cup of vinegar (half white + half red wine vin... you could also use apple cider vin, really whatever you have on hand) and one cup of water. I let it sit in my fridge for the past couple days, and *viola* made some delicious & gut-healthy quick pickles that avoided food waste! 🥒🎉 - Probiotics are important in fighting/preventing sickness... along with vitamins, minerals, lots of water, rest, sunshine, and LAUGHTER!

What to do with vegetables in the crisper about to go off? Bibimbap. Traditionally made with bean sprouts, spinach, carrots and shiitake topped with a runny fried egg. We substituted with brown mushrooms, broccoli, and cucumber cooked in sesame oil and added some leftover roasted cauliflower. Final ingredient is mixing in some gochujang (spicy bean paste) we got from @1004gourmet . We grilled some kalbi (short rib) and samgyeopsal (pork belly) also from #1004gourmet to accompany the bibimbap and dinner was sorted. . #TravelswithaGourmet #TWAGcooking #quarantinecooking #yum #fightfoodwaste https://www.instagram.com/p/B_2tKWQHTjf/?igshid=1gnt2xbllfcv0

Converting Restaurant Food Waste into Profits for all!

In the last blog, we talked about the global food waste problem and its social, economic and environmental impacts.  About 40% of worldwide food waste originates from the restaurants, thus making them the largest contributor.

Can we do something to help restaurants to reduce their food waste? Absolutely!  

Modern technology has helped solve many such global problems in innovative ways that were unthinkable a decade ago.  At BigZpoon, we have developed a technology solution that helps mitigate restaurant food waste problem in a way that is profitable to restaurants and diners alike.  We believe that broader adoption of this solution by restaurant and diners would lead to a significant improvement to our environment by the way of reduction in carbon footprint caused by food waste.

Double Clicking on Restaurant Food Waste

At restaurants, food waste happens in many ways.  The examples of waste that is not recoverable are cooking mistakes and leftovers from diners’ plates.  However the larger percentage of restaurant food waste happens due to unsold or surplus food, which is totally recoverable!

Restaurants end up with unsold or surplus food inventory because of various reasons such as improper planning or factors such as weather conditions and other events that reduce the customer traffic into the restaurants.  The challenging thing about it is that it happens in an unpredictable way.  Every restaurant faces this situation several times in a week, and they are left with surplus food on hand that has limited shelf life.  They are forced to throw away the unsold food because of regulatory reasons, even though it may be not be spoilt.

The interesting thing is that most restaurants are willing to sell their surplus at discounted prices but they cannot find the last minute customers.  None of the existing online food ordering systems (GrubHub, DoorDash, UberEats etc.) give restaurants access to their customers.  On the other hand, there are plenty of budget and price conscious food buyers everywhere who are looking for good deals but are not aware of such last minute hot deals.

As you can see there is a supply and there is a demand but there is no bridge that connects them before the time is out.  At BigZpoon we saw this opportunity and we created a technology solution to fix this problem.

How BigZpoon solves Restaurant Food Waste problem

BigZpoon provides to the restaurants a new sales channel that bridges the gap between supply and demand of discounted surplus food.  This is an on-demand sales channel that is completely under the control of restaurant operators.  They can decide when, how long and for how much quantity to open up the channel.  

This sales channel is nothing but an ability to send real time notifications via push, text and e-mail messages to inform diners about availability of hot special deals.  The diners in turn can take advantage of such deals by ordering food using BigZpoon mobile apps.

Here is how the process works:

Using BigZpoon app, the restaurant operator publishes a special offer on one of their menu items.  They specify when the offer starts and ends, how much discount and how many items are available at discounted prices. BigZpoon analytics helps with dynamic pricing algorithm to maximize probability of sale.

BigZpoon platform looks for diners that are currently within certain distance from the restaurant and notifies them about the special offer

Interested diners click on the notification and place order using BigZpoon mobile app.  BigZpoon platform accepts the offer only if specified quantity has not been sold yet.

Restaurant is notified and the food is packed.

Customer is notified through mobile app

Customer picks up the food or the food is delivered

Think about it as a time limited, quantity limited digital coupons that the restaurants can distribute to their customers when and only when they see the need.  This simple yet effective approach changes the game by finding last minute customers for restaurants and last minute deals for the diners.  Restaurant benefit from increased revenue and reduced waste, diners benefit from savings on food purchases and the environment benefits from reduced greenhouse gases.  It’s a WIN-WIN-WIN!

In summary, BigZpoon stands out amongst the crowded landscape of online food ordering apps because of it’s (patent pending) feature that enables restaurant operators to market to their customers on demand and it’s dynamic pricing analytics capability.  Please download the BigZpoon app and join us in our fight against food waste.

So funny, we got the same thing for my second Surprise Bag from Toronto Yatai 😆. I even think this pizza is the other half to the first one I received for the first Surprise Bag. 😆😆 (Tuna Kewpie Mayo Onigirazu and 1/2 of a Thai Chicken Pizza.) Also, they lowered the price from $4.99 to $3.99. #tooogoodtogo #toogoodtogogta #surprisefoodbags #tgtgfoodhauls #fightfoodwaste #savingfoodfromthelandfill #onigirazu (at K-Chon Korean Shopping Village) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpIZCJcrHs6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Last week, I went on a public tour of Hartland landfill, which services the Greater Victoria area. I was surprised to learn that, despite extensive recycling programs and citywide compost pickup, Hartland still receives 480 tons of garbage every DAY. That’s 68+ truckloads. See where the tree line starts towards the top of the screen? That’s how high the trash will be piled up by 2048, when the landfill is projected to reach capacity. Talk about scary. In the spirit of Halloween, here are some other scary facts to consider: - 1/3 of all landfill waste is packaging material. - When your kitchen scraps & food waste go to the landfill, they produce methane and contribute to global warming. - Americans produces more trash per person than any other country in the world (although Canadians apparently waste more food & water). - Global solid waste is expected to triple to 11 MILLION tons per DAY by the end of the century. #thereisnoaway #trashisfortossers #reducereuserecycle #zerowaste #fightfoodwaste #leaveitontheshelf #plasticfree #trashtalk #landfill #globalwarming #victoriabc #zerowastevictoria #zerowastecanada #happyhalloween🎃 (at Capital Hartland Landfill) https://www.instagram.com/p/BplIrcwhHDb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=yqflylsh7mbu

WHAT A YEAR! ↠ Spent the first day of ‘18 teaching @kenny.x.hamlett how to cross-country ski on Mt. Bachelor in central Oregon. ↠ Moved into a new place with my love, in the heart of a snowstorm (of course)! ↠ Took an epic road trip for Kenny’s birthday week to The Buttermilk Boulders in California. (Where he met a bunch of @climbingncolor fans - and, I’ve never been more proud.) And, after the week of camping and climbing, got to soak in natural hot springs surrounded by the High Sierras. ↠ Modeled on the Oregon coast for @caitlacoop’s wedding photography website - used her gorgeous images for an April Fools prank (Sorry y’all)! ↠ Took a trip back to The Buttermilks + Alabama Hills with @marmot to model for their new fall 2018 campaign!! ↠ Went to Texas for @kategrace2 & Brian’s wedding weekend in Dripping Springs with the whole Deines crew, and spent my birthday exploring Austin! ↠ Kenny surprised me with buying a bus - for us to build out into our future home on wheels!! ↠ Got a bff kayak on a whim with @meg_plant, and spent plenty of time paddling this summer! ↠ Went home to Iowa to celebrate @chriskei31’s 60th birthday, and fell in love with my hometown (& the lifelong friends there) all over again! ↠ Went to DC for my nephew’s 1st birthday celebration! I love you so much, @westonjohngroth. ↠ Explored Seattle with @teresaprocter! And, had SO many other random excursions and adventures along the way... ↠ Continued my professional growth as a Craft-Tender at @diybarpdx, Social Media Manager for @madhippieskinproducts, and Marketing + Social Media Manager for @modernmacrame! ↠ Spent a lot of time in the kitchen - a place that is meditative for me - learning how to #fightfoodwaste and educate about living a more #zerowaste lifestyle. ↠ Met so many new amazing friends, from my new jobs to hosting people from all over the country/world in our @airbnb! ↠ Focused on being present with friends + family - the people who mean the world to me. ↠ Admired (& was inspired by) Kenny’s dedication to always learning and his photography skills! ↠ And, spent a lot of time alone. Reflecting on who I am, and who I want to become. Slowing down to speed up. THANKS 2018, YES 2019! https://www.instagram.com/p/BsESvFZB6cR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=uh970febay66
