Answer 1

Usualy Dunkin Donuts dumpsters after closing are full of the donuts that did not sell that day

Answer 2

I'm sorry to hear that you're having a tough time financially. But there are many charitable organizations out there that may be able to help you. Please try to get all the help you can get from them - there's a risk of getting food poisoning from dumpster food.



The Salvation Army for example has branches in Philadelphia:

Answer 3

Don't you have welfare? Why not visit their local office and get help instead of begging for food or diving into the trash. Better still get a second job!

Answer 4

You can get food from soup kithcens. Also they are having free turkey dinners.
