Thanks for the link. That article is a bit one-sided and from a questionable news source, so I looked for a bit more nuance and found some here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2018/11/13/kansas-city-health-officials-pour-bleach-food-made-homeless-warning-volunteers-stop/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2018/11/13/kansas-city...
At least it's not motor oil. They seemed to have a kinda-sorta-plausible excuse for the bleach, but it sounds like they've made an internal decision that it was an overreaction and they stopped doing it.
But I kinda see their point, too -- random people making food and handing it out sounds noble, but it probably should have some oversight too. Arguably that would have been the better response from the health department. I don't think the charity in this case did a particularly good job themselves of handling the situation. Hopefully everyone learned something and five years later it's no longer a problem.
