Here's the view from London at the Daily Mail:
Shocking images captured groups of residents sifting through garbage outside a Key Food supermarket at Avenue A and East 4th Street in the East Village yesterday.
Families, elderly people and young residents were seen climbing into the dumpster hunting for whatever they could find to eat.
Here are photos from Edward Arrocha, who noted via Facebook:
Outside of Key Food, a trip. Kudos to C-squat for liberating the food... but shame on the horders who took so much more then their fare share in spite of hungry neighboors... share, repost, let the world see New York...
And C-Squat residents later cooked up the food for any hungry neighbors...
Holy shiat, the Daily Fail lives up to its name.
ReplyDeleteWe're people desperate for food or for free food?
ReplyDeleteI saw the same happen in front of Fine Fare on Ave C.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure some of the food / vegetables was still good to eat, but people really shouldn't eat meat that hasn't been refrigerated for 3 days... There are tons of dangerous bacteria that have been multiplying for days. They will cross-contaminate cooking surfaces and other foods, especially if you're cooking with likely insufficient kitchen hygiene stemming from the difficult conditions.
