Think about it. "Wasting" food is identical to overproduction of food. That's slack in the system that prevents people from starving.

- pochamago 7y agoPeople don't really manage to starve in the US. Starvation as cause of death is basically an artifact in the stats, and hunger organizations have spent years conflating it with malnutrition to keep their donations flowing. Nutrition may be a real issue in America, but hunger is not.
