Dumpster Diving - Behind the Scenes.
Was a cold and snowy night here in Gothenburg...
Lizzy is my loyal partner when diving, always ready to go! :)
Mission accomplished... ;)
Why do I Dumpster Dive?
- Bring awareness on how much food is wasted with our current system...
- Save the abundance of food that is wasted and share it...
- Minimizing costs enabling me to be less dependant on Fiat and can Power Up 100%...
- Great regular exercise and good karma... ;)

This is impressive and depressing at the same time. I am impressed by your resourcefulness and depressed at what might have all been thrown out if you hadn't salvaged it! I was wondering how all of that meat stayed good, and then I saw what you were wearing and figured it's probably rull cold there!
I love this! I do something similar with furniture that people put outside their homes to be taken to the dump. I refurbish it and either donate it or sell it. Isn't is such an amazing feeling to save something usable from being thrown away? I also find it's such a rush each time not knowing what I will find. This is so cool. Keep up the good work!

This is great! I lived on the street for a couple years and ate quite a bit of "garbage", a few months ago a friend gifted us a gigantic brick of gouda cheese from a local cheese dumpster. Just had to cut the mold off whenever we wanted to use some, I think there may still be a brick somewhere in the pantry. Kinda scary to consider what it looks like now. I am feeling inspired after seeing this, I foolishly spend most of my income on food when i have work lately.. I could at least forage for non parishables, besides the practical aspect, binning is a ton of fun.
Arigato gozimasu! Followed you, looking forward to more of your expiditions.

This act is really outta this world. I haven't seen this kind of stuff in my whole life
Yeah i know of charity and foundation but this,nah nah!! This is good and really helping humanity because food is energy and it keep people alive to search for their long time daily bread. Food keeps people on the street begging,makes people illegal and all kinds,but ere is much more in stock for free..man you are a good Samaritan. God bless your effort and sure you got a nice dog too😊 am a lover of dogs so dont mind me. Just keep the good works on and keep people alive as you keep them hope to live. Countries
Citizens should try and keep this in practice and introducing them to the steem block chain is the best, making money on their own so they dont live on bread alone
.good job man👏👏👏👏

Mate, that's an impressive haul.
I've always been fascinated by dumpster diving. The food that people collect is just insane.
It really does highlight just how wasteful our society can be.
I'm curious though, how long will that Norway Lobster last? It looks incredible but I'd be concerned for its shelf life.
Well done on your mission! What you're doing takes real dedication.

I'm currently in military and one thing that shocked me at first was the ammount of food that gets wasted. Thankfully things have improved, but years ago even underpayed kitchen workers couldnt take any left overs home and it was dumped.

Brings me back to a time when the nearly expired milk would be poured down the drain by the ton, feasts for a king rotting in the dumpster for months, poor and broke bums would be told to turn and run, but for what? So the landfills could keep filling up? Much respect to youREKA I have found it!

I appreciate this effort. I stay in India where we need to incorporate some strategy to avert hunger issues, but the problem isn't finished with feeding them, the real thing is employing them and making them realize their purpose towards humanity and nature.
Shall be a tough ride but will be an amazing effort. Not a one man job, a team is needed

I have done some dumpster diving in the past as well. I have some friends in Whistler, BC too, and they had gotten the supermarkets on board with actually giving them the waste there. They were making and selling salsas!! They said I could have a job with them doing that any time, but responsibility keeps me close to my son. I haven't been on a dumpster diving mission in about three/four months now, and it's lovely to be reminded of the fact there is so much waste... maybe I should start doing this again... :O great post @reko definitely going to follow you now~

In Australia, sadly, recovery of food from waste on a personal mission is a not really possible- locks are present on most rubbish-rid's at the major supermarket chains, which are basically a two player oligopoly. That said, we do have organisations who are partnered with the supermarkets, t be authorised to come and pick up surplus food, and redistribute it to community houses, charities and other places of need. http://www.ozharvest.org/ is one such organisation. The http://lentilasanything.com/ community restaurant is one such recipient... and the food is amazing. It's also a great place to volunteer your time!

So cool :) Where I life there is a small community of foodsharing. They work together with local supermarkets and restaurant to pick up food that would normally go to the trash. Some of my friends do not need to go grocery shopping ever. They live from saved food just like you.

It is amazing how much food is wasted . I remember when i was a teenager i worked in a local grocery store. The pizza section the freezer went out for a few hours. The guy said all of the pizzas had to go to the dumpster . We took 2 full truck loads of pizza There was absolutely nothing wrong with them to the dumpster.
This guy would have found more gold if he would have been there that day .

I love what you are doing. I've lived years on the Canarian Islands, a big part living without money, but never got hungry. We did the same and several supermarkets had no problem with it. I saw in France now it is forbidden to trhow food away. Keep on going brother.

Hello! much respect and a follow to you!.Here at spain some of the big markets at least the one i have nearby, has a lock door deposit to store all the "garbage" till before midnight when the trash truck comes and pick it all up... , today i saw in the same place a different truck park in front of that deposit around 1pm, it was a food recycle truck, first time i see one lol and i think they still trow the food, but seems that now they help the environment, that is what the truck says, lol, keep it up! the loot is epic! otherwise it is wasted :) . Take care! and cya around here :)

Another huge haul! Why can't the stores/markets just put the outdated foods in boxes (they have plenty from stocking the shelves) and you or someone else designated drive around and pick it up? That would be easier for you and the stores. They don't have to haul it out to the bin...

Here in the Philippines, it is frowned upon to have left overs on your plate. But it is sad to see people throwing untouched packaged food down the trash.
