"Greatest Crime in Christendom. To Buy- to cook- to eat more than you need; to waste a single morsel of food that can be used- is a crime. Ten million have died bravely on the field of battle. Thyey at least had a chance. They gave their all willingly and unselfishly. Over twenty million have died of starvation- without vevn a chance to fight. To these death has come only as a relief from torture worse than death- starvation. It is our job- yours and ours- to save food so that the millions of starving people in Europe may have SOMETHING to eat. Eat Less, Waste Nothing. Don"t waste Food. Live Simply- avoid all food waste."
