Have a question?
I work for a small convenience store, and we recently started selling pizzas. Anyway, is there a group I can contact to donate the stuff that we would otherwise throw away? It's no more than 2 hours old at that point, but I hate to see it go to waste.

1. Be careful
There are strict laws in Indiana about the disposal of food from restaurants/businesses. Violating them can get you fired.

6. A chunk of the southern part of the state
has a very active food bank that I believe deals with restuarants - Gleeners - I think that they then supply to smaller local foodbanks.
