Food delivery services are among the many businesses that have seen considerable change as a result of the gig economy, which is defined by temporary, flexible labor arrangements. By analyzing the financial affects of food delivery apps (like Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Grubhub) on household budgets, this study investigates the relationship between the gig economy and household spending patterns. This study attempts to comprehend the effects of these platforms on household food-related expenses, income distribution, and wider economic results by concentrating on gig worker revenue generation and consumer spending behavior. The results imply that whereas meal delivery apps give gig workers flexibility and extra cash, they also raise consumer food expenditures, which can differ depending on regional and income levels.
