Summary

Patrick dives deep into the moral dilemmas surrounding food waste and charity. He discusses whether it is a greater sin to throw away perfectly good food or to take it against policy to help those in need. Patrick shares firsthand experiences from restaurant workers and volunteers at the St. Vincent de Paul center, debating the ethics of food distribution.
