 The MOST important program on the FOOD NETWORK (re hunger)
Last edited Mon Jan 9, 2012, 05:15 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)

So last night the Food Network ran a show on food waste in this country. Yes, they had an element of competition between two teams of world class chefs... if they did not, it would not be the food network. But here was the purpose of the show... make a banquet for one hundred people, out of food that is on the way to the garbage or compost pile.

In the beginning our chefs doubted they could find food that you could actually serve and prepare... alas they did.

You see, if you go to the store and ever have asked why apples have almost no blemishes... it is because we have been trained so well as consumers that stores cannot sell an apple with a slight blemish on it. This leads to tens of thousands of tons of perfectly usable food going to the trash. Heck, they had some peas as an example... I always wondered why I never find spotted pea pods. They are fine, they are perfectly edible, they just don't go on the shelf and instead go to the trash. I have bought them in that state in MEXICO.

And that was but one example.

Eggs... well I knew this from working in a coup... but hens lay eggs in all kinds of sizes. The bigger the egg the thinner the shell. Some are truly three times a normal egg and tend to have two yolks, and come from older hens. No, you will not find the really tiny ones at the store, or the really huge ones... they go... you guessed it, to the trash.

Of course they raised the issue. In my mind this perfectly usable food should go to food pantries and the rest of places that feed people. They could also go to your local lunch programs. And that is the next step they did not raise, but it should.

And to quote Michael Szymon... as he saw a patch of perfectly usable tomatos on the compost heap... that is marinara. What a shame.

Yes, from the pictures I have seen of her, she sure isn't wasting any food.  Yes, she surely isn't.  :rotf:

And I say that the odd-shaped eggs can be put in the production process of a food manufacturer, to make scrambled egg mix, or table-ready egg patties for breakfast sandwiches.  Then, the CORPORATION could make a buck.   :panic: 

But honestly, Nadin.  The liberals have put in place stringent rules for feeding the hungry.  Every bum has to have the same standards as a 5-star restaurant.  Better they starve than to have something one day old.

Nutcase nadin clearly doesn't shop for groceries, except for shelf-stable milk.

If she did, she'd know that blemished, bug-eaten, bruised, undersized, misshapen produce is moved into a bin marked "organic", and sold to moonbats like her for double the normal price.

With the entitlement mentality the people receiving hand-outs have just try and give them imperfect food. Has Nadin learned nothing from bobbolink's posts?
