If you ask nicely you might be lucky and get a lot of food for free without getting your hands dirty.
A dumpster diver is someone who turns trash into something usable or edible. There also is the concept of table diving which is finishing off people's leftovers. In some countries such as China, you will become fat and round this way in no time. Using a table diving letter can be a good idea.
There are several reasons for dumpster diving:
- It's free (as in freedom).
- It's free (as in free beer).
- It's ecological, a form of waste reduction.
- It's fun and can be a nice social activity.
You can find much more information about Dumpster Diving in Trashwiki.org, the free and collaborative world wide guide to creating value from trash. With articles about countries, markets and other places, food, the law, and anything else related to trash recovery.
