Those dumpster divers they pity have acquired skills to be self-reliant, unlike most of the population. Diving through dumpsters requires much more than meets the eye; to be successful at it they must be intelligent so they can identify food that is safe to eat, moral to successfully follow the unwritten rules of scavenging, and patient enough to sift through trash to find the good items that people have thrown out. Most people have accidently eaten spoiled food from their own kitchen before, whether

‘Outline and explain ways in which data about crime is collected’ Crime can be defined as deviant activities that break the law in any particular society. Finding out how much crime takes place isn’t easy, and attempts to measure crime can prove misleading. This doesn’t mean that crime statistics aren’t affective, but it does mean that no single measure can be fully relied upon. Many sociologists see crime statistics as a social construction, as collecting crime data is a result of the cultural expectations of society, and by understanding who commits crime and what sorts of crimes are committed, we can get a clearer picture of why people commit crime in the first place. Different sociologists have presented different theories and concepts to explain what drives a person to commit a crime, and research and statistics give us an idea of the type of crimes committed and the places that they’re most likely to occur.

Another factor is that the cafeteria is set up in a way to be a buffet. This makes people go back for seconds, thirds, and even sometimes fourths. This is an astonishing fact that the food served could be processed deep fat fried chicken or even just plain old burgers. The fact of the matter is that this becomes a daunting way of how people become overweight.
In the beginning of the story, Eighner, immediately starts off by stating certain techniques that is used in the art of dumpster diving. “Eating safely from dumpsters involves three principles: using the senses and common sense to evaluate the condition of the found materials, knowing the dumpsters of a given area and checking regularly, and seeking always to answer the question, ‘why was this discarded?’” (Eighner 147). In this particular excerpt, Eighner emphasizes the question, “why was this discarded?” This would be one of the main ground rules to dumpster diving because one will get very ill if digesting unsafe foods. Alongside asking the question Eighner also states that one must need common sense to evaluate the specific item. Without evaluating it one may be susceptible to something very harmful.
Some state law allows law enforcement personal to pocket leftover funds after feeding prisoners provided they can still provide for their basic needs. The incentive to cut on quality and quantity resulted in the arrest and sentencing some of the law enforcement personal and the judge concluded that they had failed to provide “a nutritionally adequate diet.” Even when food isn’t rotten, that doesn’t mean it is particularly appetizing.
