The submission appears to be an impersonation or low-effort spoof of the legitimate 'GrabFood' brand (a major Southeast Asian delivery service). The domain 'grabfood.co' is not the official property (grab.com). The description plagiarizes value propositions associated with US-based services like Instacart (mentioning Whole Foods and Costco, which GrabFood does not typically serve in its core markets). Technical details are virtually non-existent ('Internet'), and traction claims are hyperbolic and unverifiable ('most people have used my product').
