We have to do better as a society. I know some stores now donate their unsold food, and that is great - but it needs to happen everywhere.

My first exposure to this wasn't with food, but with winter hats and scarves. One of my jobs in high school was in a retail chain. At the end of the season, we were told to cut up the scarves, toques, and mitts that were left before throwing them out so that people couldn't dig them out of the dumpster and use them. I couldn't believe it! I was raised not to waste things, yet here I was, cutting up perfectly good things that could have been donated and used by someone who needed them. I was disgusted.
