...Although bread is one of the easiest, most reliable items for which to dumpster dive its thrown away all the time, its dry, non-perishable, and relatively non-pathogenic I also scavenge produce, chocolate, and flowers from the garbage.
Sometimes it can be pretty icky; various slimes attend the decay of vegetables and fruit, and dumpsters are occasionally coated in unidentifiable goo....
Although Im not by any means rich (after earning an expensive college degree, I am, like many of my generation, right back to where I started: in the service industry...
But, you might protest, (as have many of my more squeamish friends), youre eating out of the garbage. Gross! Its true. Dumpsters are not particularly sanitary places....

... where women go to be their unabashed selves,...
Hmmm, I'm seeing a pattern here. A few weeks ago, there was an article praising British women on not showering/bathing every day.
Commenters on the article deigned to disagree.

Never eat at a place called Mom’s.
Never play poker with a man named Doc.
And never, ever sleep with a woman whose problems are worse than your own.
