It’s heartbreaking to consider all of the dairy products and frozen goods that had to be discarded after the hurricane left Tallahassee without power for two days.
I snapped this one at the WalMart on Tennessee Sunday afternoon. Let’s call it, “Crying Over Spoilt Milk.”
A trip through life with fingers crossed and eternal optimism.
Doing the best I can with what I have
kind of sad, but not so bad with cheese. cheese not provided.

I’m in the USA right now and I get lost in your huge mega-supermarkets. I’ve been wondering anyway what on earth they do with all the super (exagerated?) abundance of fresh products they eventually don’t sell in time … ? The idea of all that wast is hair-raising!

Some supermarkets donate their slightly out of date produce to soup kitchens and organizations like Second Harvest, but a good deal of it is just tossed. It’s a crime, or should be.

I agree. Might sound trite, but there are millions in the world dying of hunger. We are so so lucky but also somehow … guilty? of overabundance and resulting waste.

A few chains have taken action, but not nearly enough.

Well, it’s something anyway. Just a few months ago, the Italian government passed some law or other to offer chains and restaurants incentives to deal with redistribution or at least composting. And also to promote doggy-bags that aren’t at all part of the Italian culture đŸ™‚

A good many restaurants in big cities donate all of their edible waste to groups like Second Harvest. At least we are growing more aware of the issue.
