French fries and miso soup just might be the new bread and butter of the coronavirus pandemic, according to Uber Eats.
Uber’s food delivery service said that orders in the U.S. and Canada have increased by 30 percent since mid-March, about when the outbreak of the novel coronavirus was declared a national emergency. As restaurants hustle to stay afloat during this trying time, food-serving establishments have also been signing up for Uber Eats 10 times higher than previous rates, a spokesperson for the company told Fox News on Monday.

HOW TO HELP YOUR FAVORITE RESTAURANTS DURING THE CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK
As customers dig in, Uber Eats is also giving back. Starting in New York City with a “national rollout to follow,” the food delivery service is trialing a new in-app feature allowing users to directly donate to their favorite restaurants, according to the source for Uber. For every customer contribution, which will go directly to that restaurant, Uber will match each dollar donation – up to $5 million – for the National Restaurant Association's Restaurant Employee Relief Fund.
