If you hold a travel rewards credit card from a large bank, you may have some type of discounted or even free food delivery perk in the form of statement credit that you may or may not know about. And if you hold multiple cards, you probably have multiple offers.
If you are anything like me, it's hard to remember which card has what benefit, making it difficult to keep track of the various offers, expiration dates, and so on.
American Express offers cardmembers a variety of ways to save on food and dining. This includes features on a variety of its products, including increased points for spending at restaurants, Amex Offers, and more.

Final Thoughts
It's nice to save a little cash or be rewarded with bonus points for your dining and grocery store purchases. It's even better when those rewards and cash back get you closer to your next trip. Combining that with some free food is a nice perk, available on multiple credit cards.
