Maybe this belongs in the Dweller secrets thread, but I am now officially one of those people who will eat food out of the garbage.
Our neighbors behind us ended up moving suddenly. They sold their house and planned to rent it back, but found themselves being kicked out. So they emptied their pantry into a box and put it at the curb along with a mountain of other trash. I picked up 8 lawn chairs, and also this huge box of food. Brought the box back to our kitchen and went through all the items. Anything open (except the jug of maple syrup, which I boiled) went into our trash. Then I got rid of all the weird crap, like funfetti cake mix, and cans of frosting. We ended up with several jars of spaghetti sauce, a few boxes of pasta, a bunch of varieties of tea, that maple syrup I boiled and poured back into its washed jug, some rice, and similar stuff.
We've had a few meals this week that came from the trash.
