NYC Forces Vendors to Throw Away Perfectly Edible Food For Displaying it Improperly

With nearly 6,000 rules on the books in New York City, throwing food seems to be one of the most ludicrous.  But if a vendor leaves a crate of food just four feet from their door way, (and it could be the delivery truck’s fault), that crate of food, perfectly edible food, will become the property of the sanitation department, chucked unceremoniously into the back of the trash truck.

If the people chucking the perfect food are indeed sanitation workers – then it appears that the city ordered the police to order the workers to collect the fresh food instead of actual garbage. What a clear waste! And an unfair thing to order workers to do whether they be from a private company or work for the city. That is not their job. One watching the cringe-worthy footage wishes all involved had simply refused to follow such a command

In the Coalition’s latest annual survey of hunger in New York City – the most comprehensive of its kind – New York City’s emergency food providers (food pantries, soup kitchens, and brown bag programs) reported a 5 percent increase in need for their services, on top of a 7 percent increase in 2014, 10 percent in 2013, 5 percent in 2012, 12 percent in 2011, 7 percent in 2010, and 20 percent in 2009.

In spite of starving children, quite literally within blocks of this video, the NYPD is carrying out its tyrannical enforcement of city codes.

nterestingly – the government (and its accompanying NGOs) is sending mixed messages about food waste.
