      There are often reasons why they can't. Or why food banks will not take stuff. They won't take expired food even if it's same day, for example. Some stores get sent more than they can keep, and whoever sent it won't take it back and maybe no one will come get it for reasons. Don't automatically assume they're being wasteful. That's $ in the trash, and all they care about is $.

    Those hams are bone-in and spiral cut, and will make many hearty meals, even when most of the meat is gone. A meaty hambone is always good to have. Many years ago, I was at someone's home for a large holiday dinner, and a spiral cut ham was served. After dinner, I was helping with the clean up, and was surprised when the hostess was going to discard the still somewhat-meaty hambone into the garbage. I asked her if I could take it home instead and make soup with it. She apparently did not know it could be used in this manner. I thanked her for the lovely dinner and for the meaty ham bone. At home the next day, I cooked a big pot of delicious split pea soup with the ham bone. I also brought her a large container of the soup for her family's enjoyment. After that, she would save her hambones for me, and I would reciprocate with bringing her some soup.

    Have you ever sautéed your cabbage in butter and combined it with cooked noodles? My (Eastern European) mother used to make this as side dish. Goes nicely with ham.

    My goodness that was a haul! In the UK we call uncooked ham, gammon. Due to it being salty, I was taught by my gran to soak it for twelve hours at least in cold water. It draws out the salt. You can change the water once or twice if it's a large ham. At Christmas I cook the ham in cider, or original coca-cola. Any that's left uneaten, I cut into cubes and freeze then make cheese egg and ham open top pies.

    I'm glad to see him getting that free food. I have been told some places quit giving food away from restaurants at the end of the night because one of them was sued or were threatened to be sued. Don't remember the reason for that but so many stooped after that which is a shame. Because of them other people are missing out.

      Amy used to get Panera bread from dumpsters. Guessing bread can't be donated from the dumpster anymore but don't understand why bread can't be donated straight from the restaurant since there's no maintaining temperature.

    Oh my that ham looks delicious. I seriously went to buy one on my groceries yesterday the size of a softball and it was $13.49. I asked her if it was a mistake, it was so tiny.
