Today I went to Fare Share, technically yesterday. Anyway I paid 35 dollars for two boxes of food that will last at least 10 days. I will have to go to the grocery store for things some things like pasta and condiments.

So this is what I made for lunch

French Bread w/mozzarella cheese melted on it

a salad

I don't know what to call it so here are the ingredients

Shredded cabbage
One apple cut up
One orange separated in wedges
a slice of red onion (could have left it out I think, but I liked it)
the juice of a fresh lemon

Brianna's Rich Poppy Seed Dressing

so that was it, it's easy to put together and mix with Brianna's dressing or make a cole slaw dressing which would be just as good IMO, but if you are vegan you can just get the ready made dressing and it has no animal product that I saw on the label.

1. Nice.

What exactly is Fare Share? Although I think I can pretty well guess from the context.

Do you have any control over what goes into the boxes? What do you do with stuff you don't like? Or are you one of those (genuinely wonderful) people who will eat almost everything?

2. Sorry got the name wrong

It's FareforAll https://fareforall.org/ Weird a lot of people call it Fare Share, maybe because there is a similar org in the UK. You don't get to pick what goes into the boxes. And I will eat almost anything unless it's bland food. Blech.

3. Thank you for the clarification.

4. LOL that was the name of the program

https://fareforall.org/history/

They renamed it in 2007. Now it makes sense I was in a different state at that time.
