I think the point they were making was that pigs eat food scraps of all kinds, and produce organic fertilizer (in addition to meat). It's an interesting idea, but it definitely doesn't work in the cities and I bet most folks in the suburbs wouldn't tolerate the smell either. But maybe if we force supermarkets to give out expired food to coop farmers for animal feed instead of just throwing it out in the dumpster, we could be on to something.

> if we force supermarkets to give out expired food to coop farmers for animal feed instead of just throwing it out in the dumpster Getting fresh produce from farms to shoppers involves enough waste. You need to transform the waste into something non-perishable, so transport can be done lazily. Composting, perhaps?
