dive what's it really like to have food that came from a dumpster well it's
pretty exciting I can see what all of the fuss is about
all of these dumpster videos we're getting so much food out of the dumpster
it's an adrenaline rush of your car stepping up and getting all of the food
for free and quickly getting back in your car again it's so much fun it's
something that you just don't know what it's like until you experience it for
yourself so step inside my house and I'll show
you what I got today I'll be the first one to admit to you my heart is beating
rather quickly yet it's a little bit of a rush you go in you grab a bunch of
food you get out it's a little bit something different and so unique but
let me tell you I can't begin to explain to you what it's like to get free food
Trader Joe's everything came from Trader Joe's and their flowers beautiful
flowers breads all kinds of breads vegetables I'm going to blanch and
freeze produce I'm so excited I hope you're half excited as I am to see this
because it is amazing so let's get started with what I got
putting everything on the table because it's so
stuff so we got a plant and we've got two gallons of milk we got all kinds of
flowers we've got all of these flowers and look how pretty they are I'm going
to dehydrate these and make potpourri I
got two big banana boxes full of stuff for free this stuff doesn't expire until
today so the rules would be great so all of these breads I got some cranberry and
raisin pecan bread I got a container of fruit that was
sealed and I actually tried one of them and it seems really good it doesn't
expire until tomorrow salads I got a whole bunch of salads more breads then I
got a whole bunch of broccoli some more flowers some bananas a whole bunch of
tomatoes so I'm going to get everything out of here and then I'll pay my cam and
show you
so this is box number one so what I was doing was just grabbing grabbin drive it
and putting everything in my banana box so let's go and show you what I got in
banana box two box two more bread more broccoli I'm going to work on it today
right away all kinds of fruits and vegetables in here in the box some
cookies more breads some avocados honestly don't know how much this would
cost me is it was new
got some bagels
so the breads I can easily put in the freezer I got some bananas
look at the beautiful roses $6.99 people I got for free that came from a dumpster
I'm going to dehydrate them so let me go ahead put all the vegetables in a bowl
and I'll show you everything I got that spread out on the table all out of a
dumpster here we go everybody this is free food that came out of a
dumpster take a look at this times this buy every single day look at all the
food that is being wasted in the United States of America absolutely intolerable
bananas tomatoes it's just everywhere oh the
bread this bread doesn't expire - this bread is inspired - February the 20th
this expires tomorrow this expires tomorrow look at this broccoli beautiful
broccoli not a thing wrong with this stuff the milk expired today
so I'm going to open it up and then I'll try to freeze it the vegetables are
going to be dehydrated
it's just really hard to imagine there's people that dumpster dive you know they
go out every day and find free food you know this is just such a rush to get all
of this food this is food that I can use this is food that was going to be thrown
away this is Trader Joe's food which is a
very highly sought-after food all of this my friends would have
been thrown away unbelievable the point of all this food if I'm gonna let it go
to waste so I'm going to share with you what I'm gonna do with all this bread so
the bread what you want to do is you always want to have a double wrapped so
we are gonna double wrap our bread and we're gonna freeze it the two packs of
rolls expired today what I'm going to do is I'm going to make cubes out of these
and we're going to make homemade croutons so I took another bag and I'm
double wrapping all of this bread because we want to make sure we keep as
much moisture in our bread and the freezer as we can that way when we get
it out of the freezer it's just as fresh as the day we put it in now
some of this bread doesn't even conspire till next week so none of this bread is
expired some of it expired today but none of it is old but I want to take
care of it right away but we're not gonna eat no Jewish bread and I was so
blessed to get two of these right now I have my water boiling because I'm
blanching all of that broccoli my flowers
I chose flowers that can dehydrate very pretty to make potpourri the cranberry
raisin pecan bread it's probably gonna be my favorite so I'm gonna make one of
these out to eat right away we have the lucky seven grain seeded bread
this is artesian bread that doesn't even expire until the 20th so we got quite a
few days before that's even expired but the pressure your bread is when you
freeze it the fresher it's gonna be when you get
it out of the freezer so the water is boiling now we're going to go ahead and
we're gonna put our broccoli in it so we're gonna blanch this broccoli for
three minutes
I'm going to cut some of the stems as well
I'm not going to cut the real woody part I'm just going to cut the more tender
part in the cold water and now what we do is I'm just taking them out and put
it in this bag so this will give me two more meals I'm just so thankful that I
was able to find some vegetables and some fruit as well now the fruit needs
to be eaten today they want a melon and the cantaloupe but I tried the Kiwi I
tried some of it it was really good yet
so I'm gonna put this in the vise and then we're going to cut up the peppers
and I'm going to dehydrate the peppers because they need to get used up as well
bread box is full my freezer is full we have enough of milk to last us at least
a week hopefully it lasts longer I may freeze some of it Oh from thrown away
food
