Shanghai Introduces Leftover Food Blind Boxes to Reduce Food Waste

Shanghai has innovatively launched leftover food blind boxes in community cafeterias to minimize food waste and offer affordable meals. Priced at 10 yuan per serve, these boxes contain just-cooked, unsold dishes like vegetables, meat, and staple foods, not necessarily traditional leftovers. While gaining popularity, some concerns focus on potential disrespect despite the fresh nature of the food, aiming to attract more individuals for budget-friendly dining.
