Or in the cases of major chains like McDonalds and KFC, ordering off their websites. But today, we’re  spoilt for choices when it comes to food ordering options . And all of them bend over backward with 100% cash back or flat out a free 1st meal for new users to make them stick. But the thing is, nobody needs 20 different food delivery apps.
