      God how far we have fallen that we’ve gotten to the point where good food is a privilege for many in a country where good food is thrown out regularly bc it can’t be sold for profit

      She was such a lovely presence on Next Level Chef. I’m glad she still has an audience and can hopefully accomplish her dream.

      Not soup kitchen per se but heavily subsidised senior citizen centres in China do this. They cook healthy and tasty meal and sell for a very low price. Anyone can come so they cook in bulk, lowering cost to enable such low selling price. No need to check for status or anyone. Everyone eats at the same place, regardless of your status. Very dignified imo

      This isn’t quite the same thing but I’ll use this opportunity to shout out Seattle’s FareStart program. The organization focuses on training disadvantaged people, mostly homeless, with culinary skills and works to place them in jobs. They also provide meals to those facing food insecurity.

      I knew someone who was the head chef there for years and he was extremely talented, also worked doing meals for expensive ass weddings. It’s a very cool organization.

      Some chefs in a town close to me are doing something like this, taking turns volunteering at a local place to cook good quality meals for people in need. Such an amazing way to give back!

      also one of my dreams. was funny in culinary school ppl were asking what we wanted to do in the future and i was straight up “i wanna work in a soup kitchen or school cafeteria”.

      My town used to have a place where it was pay-what-you-want. I loved that place.

      Massimo Bottura did this during the World Expo in Milan that led to the cookbook Bread is Gold. Top chefs took the leftover ingredients from each day and made gourmet meals for the homeless.

      It’s a really neat book and I look through it when I want inspiration.

      Didn’t she have a complete fucking meltdown, yelling at people in the comments for being tone deaf on this very topic? Glad she’s grown and listened.Â
