Although I have aristocratic ancestors, that doesn't mean that I have 'old money', as some people suggested few months ago.

So basically, in my early childhood years my family was quite poor. And I've been raised and told that "you should never throw away food", especially since "children in Africa are dying from hunger"... (although that doesnt really make much sense).

anyway, now I'm obviously doing fine financially and ocassionally I buy some food, but then somehow forget about it, then I 'find' it, check that it's in bad condition, or past its expiry date and then well, have to throw it away. And then I kinda feel guilty for a second...

But then again, isn't food just a product like everything else, someone made it, I bought it, and instead of eating, I threw it away, but it's not that this very food would be sent for free to poor kids who are dying from hunger if I didn't buy it at the store....
