This might surprise you, but you can give food to homeless people right now. You don't need to wait for some peach-related mishap in California to do so.
Wait, i don't understand, in what way would giving food to homeless people help the shareholders? Are the shareholders homeless?
This guy gets it.
Aw, gosh, thanks for pointing that out. I hadn't even considered your point among my disdain for huge amounts of food going to waste that could otherwise have helped people. You can pat yourself on the virtue signal now.
Why would that surprise them? What a weirdly confrontational response to someone you ostensibly agree with...
You can't truly be a good person, unless you're smug and condescending about it.
