I don’t know how they think we’re all going to survive with these prices.

      Look for little food cabinets outside churches and libraries. Sometimes people put in tuna-cracker kits, a fresh fruit, bottled water, hot cocoa or instant coffee packets. The kits are nice because no can opener, heat, utensil needed. It’s not ideal but not least ideal, either.

        those are amazing little places indeed. Sikh temples and Methodist churches are helpful too

          Sikhs and Methodists are really nice. Catholic Churches often give out grocery cards and/or have food pantries.
