Stop!
In relation to the following post, it is obscene how much food Americans waste while millions go hungry. During my two week visit to Boston, I generally went to the food court at the Prudential rather than costly restaurants. It was really disturbing to see the amount of unfinished food on persons' trays that went into the trash bins, while just outside were homeless and hungry persons in need of nourishment, even if it was leftovers. Surely there must be a way to replace those trash bins with some kind of out-of-view service in which volunteers can remove the unused portions of food and create packaged meals for the hungry. Yes, I know there are so-called soup kitchens, but these days even they can't deal with the amount of poverty that plagues our society.
