150 billion pounds of edible food wasted annualy in America.

[mphello]

Even though I am no fan of hunters, because we've had this amazing new technology called agriculture that came out in the last, oh, 12,000 years, that allows us to get our proteins by growing it, I DO agree that the videos about hunted deer really has nothing to do with food waste.

And, yes - I fully support genetically engineering meat (and girlfriends) in the lab so whole animals need not be bred.

And, yes - I WILL defend hunters who claim to have seen a Bigfoot.

[mphello]

Great video!

Most important practical things anyone can do for anyone else:

#1 Don't have kids

#2 Go vegan

[HeatherMarie8888]

not to mention we are depleting the natural nutrients in the soil because we are over-farming.... there is so much that could be done. If we chose not to grow so much in the first place, think of all the money that would be saved. what about food pantries, free restaurants, less costly supermarkets.... our social distortions are going to kill us someday =(

[Royalmaple]

why turn off comments on all your bullshit hunting videos, you put this crap out there like you are some specialist. No, your just some asshole that sits in her chair and stuffs cabbage up your ass and steals clips from hunting videos and adds somber music. These deer tell you how they felt in a you tube video? What is your vision of population control then? Jesus gonna come and air lift the sick ones to the closest hospital and we can put them on obama care until they are better, douchebag

[zwdog1122]

Id love to help the Africans, but how do you plan on distributing it? Whose gonna pay to ship crates of food across the ocean and distribute it using Africas poor infrastructure. This is why Africa needs to open its doors to globalisation and join in with asia and S america. The ones making great economic leapsnby attracting foreign capital.

[zwdog1122]

We (hunters) eat the whole fucking dear and and sometimes skin and mount it. Stop blaming hunters, of which very few even exist anymore.

[Aishaqua]

Isn't it disgusting that so much food goes wasted when their are people around the world just starving to death? Look at epidemic in Africa.

[Buffyenta314]

It's not only deer. The USDA (no angel itself, with its wildlife killing division that slaughters all kinds of wildlife and makes a profit doing it) kills hundreds of thousands of beautiful geese and dumps them in landfills. Recently, they've been trying to justify the slaughter by trying to paint it as a charity, but most food banks turn it down due to toxins in the meat that cannot be safely inspected.

If you want to know how corrupt the USDA is, read a book called "Mad Sheep."

[meator30]

So all of this video was ultimately out to bash hunters as big contributors to food waste?

As far as the general public should be concerned, all that matters is reducing ALL food waste (including veggies), and not going into specifics.

Stick to the statistics, not the controversial vegetarian-hunter conflict.

[pekosiita1]

u people who waste food that buy at ur regular store just buy the food u need and eat it all like some people i know hate onions and they buy onions let them sit in the refrige then they trow them away ...

[saveonesavetheworld]

You are an amazing person to have such a wonderful video and for taking the time to educate people on food waste, you should be so very proud of yourself for you are an incredible human being.

[Pothila]

They don't even allow you to feed this stuff to pigs anymore. See Waste: uncovering the global food scandal by Tristram Stuart

[unmutualaspie]

eichmanikans are blood sucking parasite. get out of world now. you have no right to exist. bring death to first world

[tank12344]

HOLY SHIT are fucking kidding me that much meat

WTF

[jluke19facs]

You crack me up, hunters are poisoning people. lol

[mrtrailerparkbilly]

waste of time...shut up please and die

[realar]

The FDA can go screw itself, it's requirement to throw away perfectly good food after an "expiration date". Freegans help us!!

[realar]

This is stupid.

What a waste of money and working hours.

[preacain]

economics forced mass production on farms now farmers have to meet costs of transport storage, packaging, pestacide herbacide fertilizers too, out of season production etc, some supermarkets destroy food before it's dumped! many old people who payed taxes survive by picking through the wasted food of supermarkets dumped because the accelerated unnatural production methods result in short shelf life of produce this is a cycle! BSE was caused by feeding sheep brains to cows!

[preacain]

Facts and figures this is what money hads done to agriculture mass production = mass waste ! hunting is not bad I would hunt an animal or catch a fish or feed my family but to kill for the egoistic blood sport is sick as sick as the love for big cars etc this is not warrior instinct just ego driven consumerisim!

[catgumart]

I'm a vegetarian and hate hunting and cruelty to animals, but I say if contemporary homo sapiens want to hunt, okay but they shouldn't be allowed to use firearms--the only weapons they should be able to use are ones make from sticks,stones and bones-and when they hunt they have to be naked-even in the winter.

[SniperViper1000]

But guns kill faster and arrows are less painful.... So firearms should be legal.

[jluke19facs]

@catgumart what?

[MrMarcella2]

Johnathan Bloom does a great job bringing awareness to a problem that seems so obvious yet is so hidden in the United States.

I need to remind myself of these kinds of facts as well and do my best in my own community to make sure this kind of pointless waste is better understood.

Thanks for this video!

Hunting = GOOD FOOD!

[strikenetter]

Ive eat venison for 25 years and im healthy, my father for 40 years, my uncle for 50 years , etc. Haven't been stricken with any disease yet. Healthier and less cruel alternative to industrial livestock meat. If you believe hunters are the only ones killing, possibly look at any plant based food you consume thats grown in the country, Farmers kill deer by the hundreds for no reason other than to protect their crops. Have heard these boasts from people ! And hunters are the only ones killing ?

[strikenetter]

Well, you, mad deer disease, can grow crops for the hungry in place of the deer meat, and the world will be a magical place where birds sing and there's a whiskey spring !

[MadDeerDisease]

If hunters wants to kill animals let them eat the carcass then poison themselves and their families for all we care.

[Matthew5Verse7]

Your only way to win stan is by using absurdity but of course you say I am lies and untruth because the killing industry do not want the truth to be told but it will continue.

[1957stan]

I don't think telling facts and truths are considered spam sophia... Now you on the other hand would qualify.. Blaming hunting for deer car crashes? wanting to sue the dnr for said crashes? dnr are growing deer herds in secret labs? I wonder if they could sue you and your 30 different accounts for fabricating lies and untruths in all your videos?

[1957stan]

Sophia, I might just start a foundation in your name for people who don't eat wild game, but have the money to buy a license and have them kill a deer for the needy, personally I think that would be great.. Hell I would even give free guide service to them. What area do you live in again??

[DeliberateCruelty]

We gave stan the name "spam man" because of this reason.

[Downedworker]

She lets you comment, but not me?? I didn't realize how close the two of you were Stan.  Now, I'm really hurt. Gotta run now. Chat soon.

[1957stan]

All you extremists seem to have all the answers.. But never do I see you do anything about it.. Karma will happen for me, I have been good this year, I will bet I get at least 3 deer in the freezer for that.. You have no shame, in your lying evil witch ways, you scuff off legitimate good hearted people that actually roll up their sleeves and do something for people, you accuse them of poisoning and giving something they didn't want in the first place? Yes karma will bite your own ass soon!!

[1957stan]

Yeah, what planet are you from again??

[DeliberateCruelty]

As mad deer disease eat your brain and karma will get you eventually. "At least" lol they are only "giving" because its a convenience and they can buy more tags for more killing not because they "care". That would be like saying at least Ted Bundy helped some people being a doctor even though he serial killed women.

[1957stan]

At least hunters are doing something about the hungry, you on the other hand do nothing! But somehow you feel qualified to continue bitching? Dream on sophia.. A couple more weeks and pretty boy, knock knee, and your other children will be in my freezer!! yummy!!

[1957stan]

You are a waste of air..
