Too lazy to make them, but if you're offering, I'll take it. I'm a practical, not religious, vegetarian. I eat cottage cheese and Christmas eggnog. A vegan inspects food ingredients to make sure that no animal products like animal oils are included in anything. Maybe I'll graduate up the levels over the years, but right now I'm just a practical vegetarian, at the easiest level.

3 reasons: Killing/cruelty, cost of meat, heart health.

Do you pour the eggnog over the cottage cheese or drop the cheese in the nog?

Melt the cheddar cheese onto the scrambled eggs and wash it down with spiked eggnog. Then start making lunch.

I'm a real with-it guy, so I was listening to this song while you guys were talking. This group's sound reminds me of Prunethang's Inkspots or whatever his group is named. Here goes my first Vimeo post...

Yes, that is a great donation.

I'm glad that some states are finally making it the law, that grocery stores can't throw out food, and have to donate it...in Europe they've already been doing that...so much waste...why not give it to people to eat....with all the food grocery stores throw away in the US, we could friggin stop hunger

The grocery stores in my community have been extremely generous on pretty much a weekly basis. Freddy's is amazing in terms of what it donates in terms of quantity and quality. Albertsons provides full meals (Turkeys with all the fixings) every year at Thanksgiving and Christmas (and helps in other ways). Thriftway and Target are also very generous. Maybe it's just a regional thing but they are a big part of what we do and deserve our thanks. That said, yes, there should be laws that require the food be donated rather than thrown out. There's still far too much food being wasted while people go hungry.

And for anyone with overflowing vegetable gardens this summer, your local food banks would absolutely love to have the stuff you aren't able to use. Or at least mine certainly is. You'll probably have to deliver it to them (though some will be more than happy to pick it up if you are unable to deliver it). After a long winter of canned veggies, I cannot even begin to describe how enthused and grateful the clients are when fresh produce is available....
