You all know about the earth quakes in christchurch in new zealand.Apparantly over 5000 houses have to be demolished and build new ones in a new area.Thousands of houses are not liveable so people are living at friends,in caravans,in tents.A lot of houses havn't had a toilet since september and no water.
On the news today was this segment.

At one minute thirteen there is a segment taken about the latest earthquake.I cant beleive the amount of tinned food being thrown out.Sure they are dented but their communitee is in a disaster area.This shop would rather throw out good tinned food rather than donating it to charitys to help the people in need.Some people havn't worked since september but have been busting their guts out helping with the cleanups of the three big earthquakes.
To sum it up in the time of a major disaster,big business say......"Get stuffed."

I wouldn't be too proud to dumpster dive in that situation. I agree...what a waste of food.
