Fridges Full Of Free Food

Fridges Full Of Free Food

As you wander around some streets in San Francisco, you might come across a white fridge with paintings of garlic and carrots on the outside. Inside you’ll find that it’s full of juice, cartons of eggs, loaves of bread and a drawer full of fresh vegetables. All for the taking, at no cost. 

 

The fridge was set up by Cheetah, a wholesale grocery delivery startup, as a way to reduce the company’s food waste and give that food directly to Bay Area residents in need.
