WOW! Welcome to October! Can you believe that it's already the 10th month of the year?? Where did this year go? Feels like just yesterday it was New Year's!

OK folks... it's "Peever's Friday:!! Woo-hoo... it's time to share on of your peeves!!

Today's "featured Peever" is Sudcaro!

Today's Peeve: Waste of food shown on TV.

I'm thinking about those lame game shows where they throw food at contestants' faces (I've just seen that on Wipeout... pizza, pasta, sausage, even fish thrown at them...), or real TV in which they play with food (food fights etc)...
There are so many people starving out there, and they show us all this food going to waste! What a shame! It drives me nuts!

Thanks to Sudcaro for today's Peeve! IF you have a peeve you would like to see on a "Peever's Friday", please DM me!

I agree, with all the malnourished people on Earth!

It's not like throwing cash away!

Food is plentiful here but may not always be.

I agree. It's sickening and appalling.

Even lower than wrestling or roller derby.

And some of those so called reality cooking shows are just as bad.

I hate seeing all the waste of food in Chinese Buffet's!!!

I can't think of a show where they throw food? Those reality cooking shows though...I've always wondered what happens to all that food they cook?!

well now you've gone and done it......its early and I am thinking food and hungry

but I agree there is so much waste around us that one day we will all be looking for that next bite!

I think Buffets must be the worst. I often wondered why all the homeless people don't end up in Vegas. There is so much free food there if you go dumpster diving

I haven't seen a show where people throw food, the cooking shows, I'm sure they put their food to good use, I heard one time they were donating the food to a shelter, forget which show it was..
I think it would be their responsibility to make sure the food is not wasted, except....................the food Gordon Ramsey smashes!
