Waste not want not.
Every single day food is wasted.

Feeding the 5000 is a group that helps us all to see how much is truly wasted.
Every day stores chuck out slightly bruised fruit and vegetables. Bread is thrown out that can bless others. The list is long and wide from factories producing food to restaurants. Starbucks each day chucks out coffee grains this can be used for compost bins and gardens. Many places chuck out pastries and bread at the end of the day because their companies will not even allow these to be given out to the homeless. I understand that none of us want to make others sick. However there is so much waste that we are not seeing the big picture of how simple acts of kindness can mean one less person in this world go hungry.
If you think you feel down this is one way you can make a difference. Go by and ask your local grocery store for those fruit that they are chucking out and go through them. Bless others, those items can be frozen and a meal made to bless and fed someone.
Make sure that you wash everything you freeze, before it is used for consumption.
Every day scrapes are chucked out from places that either make pre made fruit bowls to those making salads. This scraps can be placed on compost heaps and also fed livestock. Cutting down the amount that is going to the rubbish heaps around the world.
Feeding the 5000 organization does not need to be limited to England if we all did our part this world would and could be a better place.
Please think of how you can make a difference and indeed step up to the plate and make this world a better place.
