I was looking to follow up on the story of the Michelle Obama pics taken with a cellphone at a homeless shelter when I found this in other coverage of the event. Incredible.
"We said we were celebrating the end of February. And Steve, our chef, was making a special meal. They know his cooking is so good," said Sara Gibson.
"If anyone brings us donuts, Steve throws them away," Gibson said. "It is not good food for our guests. We care too much to give them anything but the best. Steve wants our guests to have the same experience as if they were paying $30 for the meal."
A homeless shelter that can afford to throw away food is prima facie evidence that its over funded.

I thought we're all in the tank that all poor people are overweight. Thus donuts aren't helping. Right on Sara and Steve!

Man I bet that there are some hungry people that would eat the donuts and be happy to get them. Anyone throwing food away has never been down and out hungry.
