Dumpster Diving Across the USA! While cycling across the United States I dove into 100's of grocery store dumpsters. In one summer I ate nearly 300 pounds of dumpster food and learned that we throw away $165 billion worth of food each year in the United States or about half of all the food we produce. All while 1 in 7 Americans are food insecure. Since this adventure, I've learned that it doesn't have to be this way though and that the solutions are already there. For a deeper look into how to end food waste and hunger watch my TEDx Talk, How to End the Food Waste Fiasco at: robingreenfield.org/foodwastes....
Tell your grocery store to #DonateNotDump

Yes sir Americans waste so much food. They should ship the excess food to poor countries rather than the trash. Also it has been a common theme of some RU-vid channels of making"funny" videos on food wasting.

A lot of it, particularly food waste, is created by our law makers, not a love of money by companies. Many expiration dates are just pulled out of thin air by lawmakers and mandated to those making products. Medications in particular lasts FAR past it's expiration date and could at least be donated to Doctors Without Borders to use on their trips.

My family has been eating very well from one particular dumpster for the past 2 years. My deep freeze if full of meat & we get produce & other staples weekly. Recently they threw away about $300 worth of lunch meats. None of it was expired. The stores have to give the consumers time to use the product before it expires so most times things are tossed before the expiration date. I agree that we could solve the hunger problem if they would donate.

Our fav store throws away so much good cheeses, lunch meat, juices, fish, meat.... that we're currently unable to catch up with supply. I'd say my family is using 3% or less of what they throw away. One time dickhead mgr "called cops on me", as he promised several times before. I waited until offices came and they told me I could go ahead and dumpster dive because I did not break any laws ( just make sure you don't leave a mess...). Mr. dickhead didn't look happy.

Cant they just throw food out in a nice cleaner trash can so ppl can just take that food instead of going dumpster diving catching some disease. Technically supermarkets are throwing it away but it will just be in a nicer reachable trash can/bin so old ppl can eat too 🙁
@MegaHotdiggity
@MegaHotdiggity 4 года назад
I worked at a stop & shop and my understanding was that the items were thrown out because of the risk of disease/spoiling and expired food. But I don’t believe it. First off, the things we had to thrown out were “expired” bottles of water. Second, expirations are often artificially short so that there CAN be such turnaround and the food industrial complex keeps on. I personally think if it IS an issue of health, then stores should donate to places that have those who need the food and CANNOT BE CHOOSY about expirations just sign a waiver where they agree that they are assuming the risk of the food being old enough that it’s not healthy for them. But why don’t they do this? Profit and bottom line as far as I can tell. It really stresses me out

I've always find dumpster diving interesting. But in Sweden it's a little more difficult. Most of our dumpsters from stores and such are either under ground, in their basement, behind a high fence or impossible to get into without a key. I think it's because some years ago some guy accidentally got killed when the dumpster truck came and took the trash. Or it can be just because they don't want people go get their stuff for free. Such a waste :( Wish more people cared about this problem.

Rob sets a great example to us. Dumpster diving is a great temporary solution to a broken system of government and companies wasting food. Keep diving, but also advocate for higher ups to be held accountable and create better practices (donating, composting, etc).

I work for a school in the kitchen, and I'll tell you that so much food gets thrown away, it breaks my heart. We're required to throw so much away. If anyone is hurting for food, go to the dumpsters behind a school, (public school's almost never lock their dumpsters,) around 1pm. Especially high schools because they have so many students and have to make so much. Because of Covid we're required to wrap everything, so you'll probably find perfectly good wrapped, even still warm food in there. Also you won't have to worry about anything too gross getting thrown in there, mostly just the food, lunch trash from the kids, lots of papers and boxes. But you didn't hear that from me.

@heavenly_girl Год назад
Then why would you prepare so much food if it gets wasted anyway? 🤔
@julianmaycare6017
@julianmaycare6017 Год назад
We're required to prepare enough so that every child has the same options. We do try to cut waste, but a good day at a high school is trashing 30-50 servings of food. A bad day would be a hundred or more.
@heavenly_girl
@heavenly_girl Год назад
@@julianmaycare6017 From now on, you guys should discuss this topic and prepare moderate amount of food for the students. Or donate the extra foods to hungry homeless people in your area. So waste will be decreased! 🙃👎🏻
@julianmaycare6017
@julianmaycare6017 Год назад
@@heavenly_girl First of all we do discuss how much to make, but it's up to the manager to decide on how much of whatever it is we're making. Again with the high school as an example they have 1000+ students, and usually 6-8 different options. We generally know from experience how much to make. At the elementary I'm not the manager at, I've cut waste a lot, but there will always be days were kids change their minds or get picky. On the note of Donating the food, we legally can't for two reasons. One our company actually has us sign a contract saying none of the food can be taken out of the kitchen, donated, or otherwise. And two by the time the food is 'wasted' it's been 4 hours since it was cooked, ie old food, and by safety standards we legally can't serve it to anyone anymore. (Reason I suggested it, was if you're desperate you can decide for yourself whether you'll risk a tummy ache, or starve.) Our company is always discussing how to lower waste, we even tried asking all the students in my elementary school 550 kids, what they wanted for lunch every day, but as I said kids change their minds so easily. We'd have numbers like 300 pizza and 250 hot dogs, but before we reach the last grade we're already out of pizza and have only hot dogs that now half the kids didn't want. It's a lot more complicated than just making less food.

@quarteracreadventures855
@quarteracreadventures855 9 лет назад
Wow, so they would rather pour bleach (which they have to pay for) than see the food feed the hungry? I was at a gas station once, and a well dressed man with an expensive car pumped his gas, and when he went to the window he realized he forgot his wallet. Another person in line chipped in and bought his gas, which I thought was real nice, and I said so. He answered, "I don't mind helping HIM... you can tell he doesn't need the money." That statement stayed with me. He was only willing to give money to someone who he was sure already HAD money- he would not have helped someone if he felt they were truly needy or homeless. Isn't that kinda sad?

Has anybody here seen "Super Size Me''' by Morgan Spurlock and saw what happened to him from eating at McDonalds for 30 days? Anybody? This dumpster diving food is way healthier than anything from any McDonalds, and because a food item has reached it's expiry date does not render that food inedible, but McD, Burger King, Wendy's, Popeyes Chicken, etc will kill you or at least be the cause of your health declining if that was all you ate. Rob is getting organic food out of dumpster and he doesn't look nearly as bad as Morgan Spurlock did after after eating at McD for 30 days. So, you all may want to rethink the notion that dumpster food is bad, which it would be if it was doused bleach. But lots of people give their children McD's for dinner, now that makes me want to puke...go figure.

As humanity, we have reached already the levels of production that we can feed All people on Earth right here, right now.

True, there is not a lack of food OR housing in the US. And still people go hungry and homeless. What there is, is a lack of empathy.

At the end of 2015 Rob Greenfield was gracious enough to grant me some time after a long day of signing books to answer some questions about his Life, his adventures, and what he wants to see in this world. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-978CBP6tlgo.html

Rob i agree to almost everything you said in this video but it is arrogant to say America is the greatest country in the World . And exactly this is way many people don't like the U.S. Specially in Central and South America because of this superior thinking .

It is incredible what you find dumpster diving! We fed at least 3 cities of house less populations with the food we found dumpster diving during our travels. Yup, there are many solutions out there.

In Sweden most shops etc lock these containers so you cannot get anything from them. Even if they are not locked it is a criminal offence in Sweden to take anything from a container. So far I have read of 5 people in various parts of Sweden who were arrested by the police for dumpster-diving. You are allowed to take things from a public trash bin or from your recycling room but not from a private one or from any private property. For example the local misfits set fire to an empty daycare centre. The police cordoned the area off. There was a perfectly good hot-compost there. If anyone took it then it would have been theft. The cordon was not lifted till the whole area was empty. Nevertheless young people are dumpster diving more and more. I find it very bad that food which could be used to feed the poor is thrown away. People here throw away their unopened food about 3 days before expiry date. because they think it must be too old to eat. The trouble is young dumpster-divers leave a mess as they have not been brought up to be responsible. If they made sure to make things tidy after taking what they want dumpster-diving might not be frowned upon. Our recycling room was almost closed due to people rooting around and spreading what they did not want all over the floor. I am all for using things people no longer need. It even reduces the cost of disposal. But I strongly disapprove of divers not thinking that the mess they leave means trouble for the owners of the dumpster or recyclimg room and even that the recycling room will be closed.

I would have to say poultry, pork and seafood as I know you can leave beef out to age and its perfectly safe to cook and eat as long as you get it to temp.

Why were you in the dumpster? I know that you are trying to get some clothes and food, but, you don't have to climb out if the dumpster. Do you take showers?
