The problem is that the point of the app is to reduce food waste by selling extra food at a discount.
I think some of these people are just making more food intentionally so that they’ll have something for the app. There’s a perverse incentive where not having extra food at the end of the night means fewer customers.
The lost revenue on the discount sale of extra food can be less of a disincentive than gaining extra customers can be an incentive.
It’s like the cobra issue in India which is from Perverse incentive.
The basis of all of this issue is simply that things required to live are either too expensive or the income is too low. (Or efficient distribution is too difficult)
You mean like a loss leader?
Really depends on the discipline of the consumer.
