Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: The Container Store at 4.8 against Grub Master's 3.3. The Container Store also leads on review sentiment (40% vs 0%) and ratings volume (16K vs 8). Grub Master's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
