I say, ban eating altogether. It is a filthy habit. Just look at what happens afterward.

Wasting food?!?! What about wasting your life???
I saw something years ago about a group called the "Trash Eaters." Maybe that's what you're thinking about.

Well, George Costanza said that he and his family would eat out of the garbage all the time. And besides, that eclair was really hovering above the garbage can.

I found a Freegan website that gives tips on how to eliminate "work" from your life. Kind of tells ya where these folks are coming from.

Liberals robbing from the poor... go figure.
Nobody in this report noted the reason why this stuff gets pitched is government regulations requiring expiration dates on these items and they are pulled from the shelves to protect stores from getting sued.
To: Kokojmudd
Do the freegans ever get sick? They say no, primarily because they take precautions like washing the fruits and vegetables and not eating anything that's spoiled. Amazing this lifestyle protects you from all sickness

I knew one of these types my first time in college. He was your typical anti-corporate, anti-capitalist student activist. He ate only garbage and lived in a tree house in order not to participate in our evil consumer culture. The tree house was in his parent's backyard in one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in the city.

They're right though....grocery stores by law have to throw out stuff on the expiration date even though it will be good for days beyond that. So much good stuff is tossed so go for it, freegans....although don't forget to clean up after yourselves.
To: Kokojmudd
Wouldn't getting people to stop eating "corporate food" bring about freegan starvation?
I saw these nutjobs on the news today. One girl claimed she had never gotten sick from eating garbage. I have a feeling that any illness she gets is blamed on secret govt bioweapons.
