Pesia's Kitchen in Israel Uses Rescued Food to Feed 1 Million Meals in 2021Gideon Ben Ami, the founder of Pesia's Kitchen, discusses shares their unbelievable success of providing 1 million meals in Israel with rescued food in 2021.  As an entrepreneur who ran hotels and chains of restaurants, Gideon saw first-hand how food was wasted.  Instead of retiring after his long and storied career, Gideon set his sights on ending hunger in Israel by rescuing unused food.   Pesia’s Kitchen feeds a million meals at the cost of .32 cents a meal. Partnering with large companies such as Google, Waze, and the like -- Gideon got these corporate kitchens to donate their unused meals.  Further, Pesia's Kitchen works with Leket Israel to use the 'ugly fruit' in the fields to donate that to the poor thereby saving from rotting food causing more greenhouse gases to harm our earth.    All this is seamlessly and inexpensively done through a simple network of volunteers.  This business model can end hunger in Israel and for sure the entire world.   The perfect opportunity: using a network of volunteers, rescue food that would have been tossed out and feed those who have none, and end hunger.  Period.

People come to the bank, the bank doesn't come to your house.  We want to prove a point about rescue food -- it's not costly if you adopt a model that works.    There is a new law that says you cannot sue someone who's giving you food even if you have bad results from eating that food.   It's called the Good Samaritan Law. It basically says you're trying to help somebody. You cannot turn around and sue them because they helped you in a way that hurts you inadvertently.  It's been a joy to go to these corporate kitchens on a daily basis and see this fantastic food that's served to high salaried people.  And two hours later the poor are eating the same meals.  Let's take this food rescue model and share it with the world. Israel could be the first country in the world to end hunger -- with a simple plan. QVb4j83ffIKsF4d6hu6y Amazing Informative Links:https://pesiaskitchen.org/https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/600m-worth-of-food-to-be-thrown-away-in-israel-during-passover-662289https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/waste-not-want-not-and-other-lessons/https://www.wfpusa.org/articles/8-facts-to-know-about-food-waste-and-hunger/https://foodtank.com/news/2021/12/organizations-transforming-food-systems/https://www.jpost.com/special-content/food-rescue-can-close-food-insecurity-gap-in-israel-689799
