I don't know Maven. I have a lot of trouble believing that people who hold down viable jobs "forage through supermarket rubbish" as the article states - even to eat the slightly bruised produce or just-expired canned goods.

I believe people recycle household articles - I see enough folks driving around in pick-up trucks on the week before and the week after moving day. In Québec, Canada, moving day is July 1st so pretty much all of the big stuff winds up on the curb during that period. Very few of the items actually wind up in the big-garbage truck.

But past-due food, I don't buy it as a lifestyle "choice".
