Food for free

SUMMARY
Andy Wallace is a freegan. He looks for food in the trashcans, it's not like he can't afford to buy any himself but in protest he chooses not to. A lot of food is been thrown away, supermarkets and many people waste food daily. There's a charity that collects food that is almost past its date but still completely fine.
