Ok, so who has ever been told, if you've ever left a bit of your dinner, that some poor, starving people would have done anything for it?

Well, we aren't poor. Whatever we do isn't going to benefit them, all the way over there. We're well fed. We're the lucky(er) ones, so why behave like someone who's not by eating it ALL? Am i meant to cry in sorrow for the people in that situation, whilst swallowing each mouthful of food, splashing tears over my dinner in pity for them?

But, also, if you think about it, it's a mighty big chance that we might have ended up elsewhere.

A better solution is to not buy as much food, hence not filling your plate too much in the first place, saving you money and reducing the environmental strains of producing a huge excess of food which is demanded by the public but never utilised.

Good answer, IB. That is what we call a 'thread stopper'.

Or a better solution is to stick the scraps in the fridge and then stick them in a sandwich for supper.

Anything tastes good between two slices of bread.

I can't stand the thought of scraps between bread...

Chicken shredlets (if that exists), sloppy gravy and veg, sandwich.

Ick.

If you ever want to leave some dinner and they complain about poor people. Offer to post it to your local charity shop.

An I've seen tramps eating out of bins before - so if you put your dinner in the bin they would be more than happy. They would surely die if nobody every left any food. So if you leave food you are actually saving lives. Bless you my child
