| Nine's User ID: 23438707 11/09/2012 12:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is so NOT TRUE. Look at the date in the story, it was written last March and this only applies to foods that are NOT properly labeled. They are not accepting home-cooked foods or foods that are not properly labeled with expiration dates at the shelters. As a safety precaution...makes sense to me. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24937833 I have been donating non-perishable foods and foods in their original wrappers for the past week at different shelters and no one has ever turned anything down. In fact, I just donated numerous cartons of Parmalat milk this afternoon to a shelter full of weather refugees..and they were deeply grateful. You might want to consider making a donation to the Salvation Army if you really care.... Thanks for posting this. This article was so disturbing. Glad to read your post. |

People are starving... they are not going to care how much fiber is in their food!!! For the love... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10396209 Oh yes they will, in all likelihood they would have been firm supporters of everything "correct". They were probably the ones who didn't prepare because they "knew better", than to panic or "give in to fear". |
