We covered these activists who claim that there is too much waste in the country...They believe that it is their responsibility to rummage through the garbages of grocery stores and restaurants to collect what food really shouldn't be thrown away...then they have these parties where they eat this food...you could tell there were some people who were less concerned about the health aspects...they were the ones eating right out of the garbage...others claimed they were going to wash it before they ate...still it was hard to see it as healthy...wouldn't it be better if they just went to the grocery stores and restaurants and requested the food before they threw it out? But then they would not be able to get the television coverage they've recieved with this...making me wonder if they're really out to change the world or just get their fifteen minutes...
