Feed My Starving Children


Garrett Popcorn

Daughter L  returned late last week from  a 2 week training course in Chicago.  It was her first business trip!  Besides eating too much, she learned a lot and continues to enjoy her new job and co-workers.

 One day, there was an organized volunteer activity to Feed My Starving Children, an intelligent food bank.  It was not a part of her job, more of an opportunity to get to know her new team members.  Feed My Starving Children  has developed an easy to prepare food blend that is very inexpensive and nutritious. They ship it to starving countries worldwide. L and her co-workers had to help assemble the food pouches that day.  She was very impressed with that innovative non-profit organization.

L said Chicago is a big city like Toronto, but with many more large office buildings downtown and a lot more homeless people.

She brought us bag of Garrett Popcorn which is as good as they say it is.  This bag had caramel popcorn with cashews.

I once saw a collection of pictures of the "average family's" groceries for a week in a comparison between nations. The most poor have literally nothing except some ugly fruits and vegetables if that.
