Still, it makes me sad to see this.

Stray thoughts from 1 of the 50,000
About Me
For a long time, we were just another typical Washington, DC family: two policy-oriented jobs, two kids, and two cars. Out of the blue, my husband got a new assignment; we ditched the old jobs and the cars (but kept the kids) and headed to Paris for what started out to be a three-year, and eventually became a four-year tour.

sad indeed...don't they have something like Second Harvest that would come and pick up un-used food....or are even the needy picky about day old baquets?
With the amount of garbage-picking I saw when I was there last summer, my guess is these would be gone before they get picked up by the daily trash-collecting brigade. Hell, I'd take them!
Yeah, that makes me sad too... Especially with the number of people roaming the streets asking for some spare coins...
I've never understood the French willingness to waste food. And if you don't finish what's on your over-filled plate, they act like you're some kind of villain.
waste is always stupid... When I see plates in american restaurants I almost get sick before eating...
