Shepherd's House Food

Near us, there is a church ministry that collects expiring food from Publix and Trader Joes, packs them into boxes, and sells the boxes for six dollars. She packed it really full this time for me. Everything on the list I got for six dollars. And the two items that still had prices on them added up to $7.60. All I need for this week is eggs.

Chips? Fresh broccoli for the Jalapeno dipping sauce?
Oprah had a show that featured "Freegans--people who save the environment by going dumpster diving. One young professional couple she had on did so for their faith--so they could give to others.
