Brooklyn white people are eating in dumpsters now

[Taadow]

You know what, I can't knock the hustle all this must cost nothing for the business owners, and anything to make hipsters look like idiots because they think it's "edgy" is a for me

Cuzzin this is exactly what I thought when I read this...i'm mad I never thought of this.

It even has that hippie-ass "we're saving the earth by doing this" action on it...I gotta get my hustle on...

WSJ – Bruised apples, floppy herbs and moldy grapes might not be considered acceptable ingredients for most home cooks. But a Manhattan man is hoping to change New Yorker’s outlook on food freshness—one dinner party at a time. Josh Treuhaft, a recent graduate of the design for social innovation master’s program at the School of Visual Arts, has hosted seven Salvage Supperclubs, where he served past-prime food to diners inside a scrubbed down dumpster. In all, the dinner rescued 1.8 pounds of food per person that was otherwise destined for the landfill. Culled from farms, farmers markets, restaurants and home kitchens, the waste was still perfectly safe and nutritious, Mr. Treuhaft said—the chef just needed to be creative in its handling. ”People don’t like waste. It’s icky,” said Mr. Treuhaft, whose thesis originally focused on composting and remaking waste but then evolved to become the intersection of food and waste. “When you talk about food, people’s faces light up.” A group of 16 adventurous foodies stepped into the dumpster, donated by a waste management company, along St. Marks Avenue in Brooklyn Thursday and seated themselves alongside fresh planks of lumber from Home Depot. Mr. Treuhaft said that he preferred to make his tables from decommissioned scaffolding, but his source, Build It Green, didn’t have any this week. Attendees paid $50 for the six-course meal, with profits going to City Harvest, an organization that rescues food and gives it to those in need. The diners agreed that the food was good, if a bit light. Tiny beets from Queens County Farm, too small and time-consuming for farmers to pull from the ground, arrived to the table with their curly tail still intact. The dumpster itself was so eye-catching that Treuhaft spent much of the dinner chatting with strangers who stopped to observe the scene. Some snapped photos. Children stopped too, asking the obvious question: “Are you eating in a dumpster?”

This is it, folks. This is the one. This is the whitest moment of all time. Eating beets inside of a goddam garbage receptacle. Like some sort of hipster Dwight Schrute shyt. Clayton Kershaw’s crew would take a look at these a$$hole foodies and be like “You motherfukkers are whiter than Wonder Bread.” And the best part is I can’t even figure out the “cause” behind this one. Eat dinner in a dumpster to help raise awareness about food waste and past-prime food? Like theres some sort of epidemic of people cooking spoiled food and then throwing it out or some shyt.

I dunno man, I got nothin on this one. No rational reason anybody should ever eat in a garbage can. Just gotta chalk this up to “White people have too much time on their hands” and keep it moving. Get back to white people basics like eating hummus from a food truck.
