Great question - you are not doing it wrong!
Whether you are mining Gridcoin or Bitcoin, your PC will still use the same amount of power. The difference is that when mining Bitcoin this power is spent endlessly hashing into the void to 'win' a block, while with Gridcoin this power is spent doing research.
The power draw is the same, but the benefits derived are worlds apart. Gridcoin will soon be back up to a level where it can easily pay for your power costs.
Gotcha, thanks!
Also, I probably should've said above that I 100% agree that the food waste shouldn't be a thing - my comment was more geared to blaming the rules and regulations of society itself and not the establishments. Hell, where I work the guests could take the food to go, which we happily box for them, and walk quite literally 3 steps out of the restaurant to find a homeless person to hand it to. Instead I'm scraping half plate fulls of food into a trash can 99.9% of the time. @websensei "poor minds" indeed.
