Eating garbage

If you think vegan is extreme, check this out. People called Freegan seek to not use money at all. Their argument is that while vegans' efforts to boycott products that harm animals is noble, they are still supporting companies that do equally unethical things.

One of the ways they do that is by dumpster diving at stores and other businesses. They say they find discarded food there that is perfectly clean and eatable. To each his own, I guess.

Lesson learned: Good for them for reducing waste, but I might stick to eating expired foods in my own refrigerator.

It does sound like what I do in my own kitchen...but at least I know where it came from.
