It is a common misconception that low-income people don’t care about their diets, but there are significant barriers to accessing fresh, and healthy food, and m...ost of these barriers disproportionately affect low-income populations and racial minorities. Much of the problem has to do with government subsidies. According to recent data from Metonomics, the American government spends $38 billion each year to subsidize the meat and dairy industries, but only 0.04 percent of that (i.e., $17 million) each year to subsidize fruits and vegetables. The reason why a Big Mac is cheaper than a salad, for example, is systemic. Subsidizing the meat and dairy production results in their lower prices, and when the price of something is lower, people tend to consume more of it. But studies have shown that those who consumed the most subsidized foods (high-fat meat and dairy products) were 41% and 21% more likely to be overweight and have elevated blood sugars, respectively. Green Menu believes that having access to healthy, nutritional foods is a basic human right and nobody should be forced to compromise their health because of their financial circumstances. In honor of this, this week we donated over 500 pounds of plant-based meats to our good friends at Shepherd's Pantry in Glendora. Shepherd’s Pantry’s vision is to alleviate hunger and to improve the well-being of those living in the San Gabriel Valley. Many thanks to Be Leaf Corporation (who make vegan products that contain NO eggs, milk, alcohol, preservatives, animal or GMO ingredients) for making this donation possible.

115 million pounds of food have been distributed by the LA Regional #FoodBank and our partners since the outbreak. In order to provide these millions of meals, ...distribution has increased by 145% since last year. As a nonprofit organization, the Food Bank relies on the generosity of the community to continue our critical work. Thank you to our donors, volunteers and supporters. Without the help of your kind donations, the Food Bank would be unable to work toward our vision: that no one goes hungry in Los Angeles County.
