Too bad about the colon! I agree with you about food banks. They do not do anyone any favors when they distribute rotten produce or cans that are five years past expired. How, how, how can they stand there and expect me to take fully rotten produce? You can't really cook major rot out!! Of course I don't take unsalvageable food! Canned food is harder to tell. I'm glad you lived, even though you are one of those cigarette smokers in the world! Food banks also don't do anyone any favors when they distribute a lot of pastries at one time, either, which seems to be common.
I've worked and administrated food banks. We're not allowed to distribute foodstuffs that is beyond the date printed on the can, box etcetera. But there
can be some exemptions, produce, if one tomato in a six pack is spoiled, bruised, weepy etcetera, it doesn't spoil the other five.
Do you toss the fruit/veggie in that condition? Then you are truly not hungry or in dire need.
If you should receive a can of chili, veggies or potted meat product that is merely days beyond the date on the can, do you toss it? Then you are truly not hungry or in dire need.
Quit your bitching.
