Garbage



As I mentioned in Monday's post, we were out this evening doing some community service. About 20 friends and co-workers were at Hunger Task Force and in 3 hours sorted and boxed 26,000 pounds of food that had been donated to feed the poor and hungry. The Task Force services 80 locations around the county. The picture above is of food that will never be served, because the containers are damaged or the food is past its freshness date. We found one container that expired in 1996! If you're going to clean out the cupboards and do something good, please take the time to at least look at the food and see if it's any good.

What a pity to see all that food be thrown away! That's a real waste.
