Dumpster diving

The practice of foraging in garbage that has been put out on the street in dumpsters, garbage cans, etc., for discarded items that may still be valuable, useful, or fixable.

Dumpster diving is really cool at least people are doing something to minimize waste. There are a lot of people in this world who could live and benefit from the waste of others. It could cure world hunger too. I wish people realize that.

Thank you @diabolika! That's my mission and I won't stop until it's done...one step at a time! :)

Nice work @reko!

I think it's sick the amount of food that gets thrown away, I delivered food to Ica and Willys and coop for 7 years and I saw tons of good food discarded as nothing.

Yes @markwhittam, been doing this for many years now and it's hard to grasp to what extent this is done if you haven't seen it with your own eyes. This is only part of what food I've saved from one single store the last days with my trusty bike! ;)

Thank you for the support btw, much appreciated! :)

Recko, great photo, great post! Upvoted.

Thank you @detlef-s! :)

upvote for you... this is for humanity .... save food... dont waste.

Thank you @chrislo2004, agreed! :)

Just goes to show love still exist amongst us. Love what you do and I pray you get rewarded for it everyday

Thank you @otemzi, this effort is really close to my heart and I love sharing it here with you... one step closer to ending the systematic food waste for good! :)

wish everyone had a kind heart as you, while waste when we can give the little to others. There are so many out there starving and that little can go a long way.
Keep up the good work once more

Thank you for the encouragement, will do! :D

I love what you are doing! I have been reading your posts regularly and now search for them so I can give you a vote! Keep up with your awesomeness!

Glad that you like it @braveheart29 and appreciate the encouragment and support! I'm just getting started so much more to come! ;)

Your working hard keeping the masses fed. Good on U Mate

Thank you @potlucker, no one go hungry on my watch!! ;)

How do you ensure that the meats are still ok to eat?

Hey @gniksvart! :)

It's ideal weather in Sweden now for dumpstering meat as it's pretty cold outside. But of course I can't guarantee that everything is ok... but you learn to trust you senses when it comes to food when you don't stare yourself blind on expiry dates! ;)

Never had any problems so far nor has my friends and we've been doing it for many years now...

Very cool. That's understandable because it's getting closer here in Indiana to be at or below freezing most of the time so yeah most meat thrown out would stay frozen or close to it.

Exactly and the stores here throw away things systematically before the expiry date which is called "Bäst före" (best before) which is not even close to have gone bad.
