I’ve noticed a recent increase in media attention for freeganism.  There was the New York Times feature, “Not Buying It,” already reposted here, a recent New York Press piece that describes the social atmosphere of group dumpster diving, and even a dissmisive and annoyed Huffington Post column on the topic.  This is probably due to several factors, including the catchy name and the current season (it’s summer and freeganism is at a peak, it’s summer and news is slow).  This shit is blowing up like street art and gallery grafitti!  I’m feeling behind the times in wanting to try urban food foraging for myself.  Several recomended dumpsters are not far from my place.  Stay tuned.
