    40% of groceries are thrown in the garbage every year.

    1/3 of prepared food in restaurants is thrown out.

    2 bn. pounds of pumpkin is grown every year. Only .7 bn pounds are used as decoration before joining the other 1.3 bn in a landfill.

    The human ability to produce and provide food so that no one must suffer and slave and beg in order to eat and stay alive, is tremendous. The obstacles to this are fraudulent, imaginary, exist only via distribution and dumb monopoly papers. We have solved the food problem, to an obscene degree; we should be ashamed we allow a single human ever to go hungry in this world. With stats like these, food isn't a commodity, it's a right.
