isn't it sad, that somewhere else people are starving? and in our so called civilized countries we are able to live from garbage.....

there are 15 people starving every minute.

please remember this fact!

we wont buy your crap

but eat your scrap...WTF

[darkconversationist]

i would not trust garbage food maybe other things.

seems the way supermarkets operate creates a large amount of waste

- crazy how much they throw to waste .imho.

to be fair it appears joe public craves convenience but requires community, allotment gardens / permaculture and a lot of love

dumpster diving helps clean up the world. I should know :)

@wurkafeela You really don't get it?

Eating there scrap does NOT support them, buying it does.

Man...so what happens if there is cum, snot, dog crap mixed in with apples, bagels, and yogurt in the trash? No thank you, I could never be Freegan.

If you peel that used condom off that apple and wash it, it's perfectly good.

What is this "here in america" trash I hear you people saying about those in poverty? I do agree many suffer because of their own choices, but wouldn't a good choice be to not starve AND not waste? I get 60 dollars worth of free vegetables and pizza every time I dumpster, simply because I cannot carry anymore and someone is going to try to tell me that im the one not doing anything? When's the last time you got good and dirty for something you wanted?

i think you need a big huge.Tgere's a lot of anger and hate in you. First you are not well informed. Mostly freegans have a political think, don't want to waste their money, because they work, they''re nnot lazy, many lazy people work behind a computer, or a desk, doinng nothing, withh their dogs at the jobplace, it's work?, they pick up food at supermarketsnot in personal trash, and it's not banned, why don't you worried about health of poor people that do this, because they're poors.
