Hi,
I am an investigative reporter at WBAL-TV in Baltimore. I am working on a story about food waste…from stores and establishments and how our government let’s it happen. If anyone knows about the places in my area that throw stuff out all the time and when they do it I would like to know. Also is anyone out there in my area going out to retrieve the food that’s wasted…we would like to go along. Please call and write. Lisa Robinson

Hi Jonathan,
I can’t wait for your book to get published. It’s great that there’s people like you who really are letting their actions do the talking.
It’s so easy for so many of us to talk and agree about how bad is food wasting then continue to throw out perfectly edible food in the privacy of our homes.
Keep it up!
Hey Precious,
You’re dead on in that it’s easy to nod along and still throw away food. Heck, I’m cleaning out my pantry now and am tossing out waaay too much stuff. Avoiding waste takes some foresight.
