Global hunger shows no sign of reversing

34Yep. Just look at the bakery section of Walmart. Most of that gets thrown away, but it's more profitable to charge high prices and sell very little than to sell a lot at a lower price.
This is what we get for putting wealth on a pedestal and breeding for greed.
12Not disagreeing that a lot is wasted, but that's just not true. It all gets donated unless it's unsalvageable, which is not very common.
Idk why the downvotes, I'm just correcting it with facts lol.
