I am curious as what to do with the chicken & pork chops I currently have in my freezer. I don't really have anyone to donate them to and I feel guilty throwing them out - they were expensive and it feels as if the animal really did die in vain if I just toss them in the garbage. However, I no longer have a desire to eat them either . . .
What did you do?
(I have no problem with the pantry items, they are all ready to go to the soup kitchen at a local church.)
Hey Jessica - I would recommend giving them away to a friend/neighbour/family member close by who still eats meat. It's better to know that the food is being used rather than throw it away...and it may lead to a great discussion about dietary choices! You may end up telling someone, who tells someone else, etc., etc., about ethical eating practices.
Could you use them to make something to share at a potluck or with people at school, church, or work?
I would save them for when I have guests over, and serve it to them with lots of yummy vegan delights on the side!
Donate them, soup kitchen will take them and they will love it. I think giving back to the community would be great :)
I have been known to knock on neighbors doors even if I didn't know them and give them stuff so that is probably what i would do.
Hey everyone - thanks for your great suggestions!!! It sometimes takes me a while to think outside the box!!
