Ever go to the deli counter in the supermarket? Watch the deli person carefully. Things you'll notice:
They have a bag full of meat and cheese scraps.
They leave ends of meat out too long to be sold.
If they cut your slice too thick or thin and you complain, they won't give it to you to eat...they throw it in that bag full of scraps.
Those scraps are a) wasted revenue wasted and b) food wasted which could have gone to a ton of good places like in meals for the homeless, to be used in recipes, to be made into other dishes and donated to other causes.
Remember when your parents told you that you should eat everything on your plate and when you rebelled they told you to think of those starving children in Africa? I think the guys at the deli counter management are trying to live the rebellion still.
America the wasteful.
FUCK YEA!
