"Filling Up Free Little Food Pantry"
"Anyone else constantly filling up their local little food pantries? Star Wars oreos, pixie sticks, hot fries, chips, energy drinks, pasta, and candy today! (I didn’t donate the baby food- that ish looks gross) Definitely recommend for all these pallets of good boxed and canned food we find!"

The food makes me a bit uncomfortable but hey that's up to each person and how safe they feel but I would never bring in anything upholstered. In fact nothing cloth that couldn't be run through a washing machine (my rule for second hand in general).

Jeanne,
What makes me uncomfortable is the fact that so many stores throw out perfectly good food when so many people are hungry/struggling for food.
I used to work at Walmart and, if a box opened up even if the actual food was individually wrapped it was tossed in the trash compactor. Non-perishable foods passed the expiration date? Compactor.
In the States, we have this strange belief that if you donate food that's passed the expiration date that someone could sue you.
It's completely unfounded. No one has ever been sued for donating food passed the expiration date or that made someone sick.
SO much food that could otherwise be donated gets destroyed or ends up in the trash.
I just read (possibly on here) that it is illegal for grocery stores to waste food in France and they have to donate anything they don't sell to charity. Idk if it's true or not, but it's a great idea we should adopt.
I'm glad at least someone is eating it. Instead of throwing it out I used to hide in the freezer and eat as much as I could like a frozen little gremlin

#7 that cat and rock salt lamp shouldn't be in the same house. Cats tend to lick them and they are toxic to cats and can cause all sorts of health issues/death. Beautiful cat though. Keep ot safe!

#1 Feeding feral cats. How sick and out of touch with nature does a person have to be to do this? You cat people think you're so loving and in tune with animals. This is proof of how out of your minds you are. These are feral animals; guess what: if they're hungry, they'll kill something, stupid. Also, by feeding feral animals, you are throwing their ecosystem further out of whack. If you create overcrowding in the cat population, what do you think will happen...
