We feed from the garbage, and you?

By Pictolic

Rafael Fellmar is married, he has a small child, but nevertheless he prefers not to work, and feeds his family in a very peculiar way. Living in Germany, he prefers to collect food from garbage containers. Do not rush to judge this family, in fact, these are far from the only people engaged in such a strange business.

According to the reports of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, $1 trillion worth of food is thrown out and spoiled every year. With the help of the Internet, the German environmentalists made the "foodsharing" ("food exchange") movement popular. People collect food that has been thrown away by supermarket employees and exchange it with other like-minded people.

Another site, where about 8,200 people are registered, will tell you information about all garbage containers in Germany, it says here that sausages can be found in garbage cans in Cologne, and certain tea in Chemnitz.

Everyone can buy products there for a nominal fee (0-2 euros). However, you need a special certificate from the social department that you are poor. This may be a certificate from the labor exchange that you are unemployed. Thus, the need to climb through the garbage cans of the above-mentioned citizen completely disappears.
