I like Mari too. I also think she made a very valid point. Someone else made the point that there is a big difference between old food and out of date food, but in reality even food that's old but within its sell by date may be spoiled, if it's not been kept in the correct storage conditions.
I remember someone offering a bunch of food to my mum for the Refugee Council to use in their emergency food packs.....bless them for making the effort but it was pretty much all unusable. It was thrown away. Just because someone is on the breadline (or below it) doesn't mean they should 'be grateful' for food which may make them ill and which none of us would consider eating.
