It HURTS! I was brought up by the generation that lived thru the Great Depression and wasting food was considered a sin. I was so pleased that Adena (at great inconvenience) took all the food to the homeless shelter last summer. Hopefully, we will find a place this year.

Also, you raise a sound point--you don't need a non-profit to find a homeless shelter that could use your edibles. It would be ideal if rental companies spread the word about donation options. I know Bill Spier has convinced local rental agencies to do just that. Good on ya for finding it on your own. Hey Adena,

Last year, after attending a fantastic wedding in Cape Cod, we called the local homeless shelter and were able to drop off all of our extra food from the week before leaving town. It would be great if rental companies could provide this information to tenants upon check-in. We plan on adding this task to the list of beach clean-up activities going forward. Jon- Great post!
