- Every year in the USA we produce enough food to feed nearly 2 entire American populations yet 50 million Americans go hungry, many of them children and elders. Grocery stores throw away enough food to feed every American in need. Together we CAN stop the waste and feed our fellow Americans. Ask grocery stores to #DonateNotDump

I work at my co-op, they let us take this kind of food they can't sell home. Our produce section has a program for farmers to pick up the bad produce for their compost or animal feed or whatever. I've cut my food bill down to maybe $25 a week taking home stuff out of the produce bin and past date meat.
If they can't give it to food banks, they can still give it to employees that are likely living at the poverty level.
Awesome video! Thank you for doing this. It always ticked me off when people talk about hunger in the United States. What hunger? There is plenty of food here for everyone. It's the misappropriation of food that needs to be discussed. Thank you. Thank you😀
Rob this is a worthy cause. I worked at a large grocery retailer for years and the food waste was incredible, so much gone for a tiny blemish or a splatter.

Hey brother. I run a Christian ministry and was wondering what the procedure might be for getting waste donated to the ministry like this? Thanks so much for all you do and God bless your success.
