Then find ideas below from panelists like food waste expert \u003ca href=\"http://www.wastedfood.com/\">Jonathan Bloom\u003c/a>, author of \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.americanwastelandbook.com/\">American Wasteland\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, and celebrity chef \u003ca href=\"http://www.butterrestaurant.com/#/about\">Alex Guarnaschelli\u003c/a>, who took part in \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodnetwork.com/food-network-specials/the-big-waste/index.html\">“The Big Waste,”\u003c/a> a Food Network show in which chefs prepared a feast for 100 using food destined for the trash. \u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Buy Less:\u003c/strong> Shop more often and purchase just the food items you need. If frequent, smaller trips to the grocery store or farmers market aren’t an option, then plan meals and make a detailed shopping list to keep impulse and excess buying in check. Consumers need to get over the mind set, Broom cautions, of filling the fridge to the brim. And if you’re a weekly shopper, leave one or two nights open for repurposing leftovers.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Rethink Portion Size:\u003c/strong> Most cooks want to feed family and friends well and err on the side of generous servings. But such thinking contributes to a phenomenon known as plate waste: Uneaten food headed straight for the compost bin or (worse) garbage pail. Instead, try small servings the first time around, and place seconds within easy reach on the table. Or serve food family style, where individuals can help themselves. As one conference participant pointed out, overeating is a form of food waste too and many eaters feel compelled by culture or conditioning to eat everything dished up for dinner.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Love Leftovers:\u003c/strong> Pack that extra pasta and salad (keep dressing on the side to avoid gluggy greens) into containers for the next day’s work or school lunch. Or turn leftovers into an entirely new dish for a future dinner: Excess chicken can make its way into a rice bowl or pasta dish. A pot of beans can be transformed into a soup or stew. Stale bread, as \u003ca href=\"http://www.tamareadler.com/\">Tamar Adler\u003c/a> notes in her ode to \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/22/opinion/thanksgiving-thrift-the-holiday-as-a-model-for-sustainable-cooking.html?pagewanted=all\"> sustainable cooking\u003c/a>, \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.tamareadler.com/book/about/\">An Everlasting Meal\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, can find a happy home in bread soup (\u003cem>pappa al pomodoro\u003c/em>) or salad (\u003cem>panzanella\u003c/em>).\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/moldy.bread_.istock.jpg\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/moldy.bread_.istock.jpg\" alt=\"moldy bread\" title=\"moldy bread\" width=\"471\" height=\"255\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43642\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Make the Freezer a Friend:\u003c/strong> Lots of food items get a second chance thanks to the freezer. Extra stock, pasta sauce, or tomato paste can be stored in individual servings in an ice cube tray. Ripening fruit such as berries or bananas (peeled) can go from freezer to smoothies or baked goods. Bread and rice freeze well, as do nuts, which are less likely to go rancid in the cold. Most leftovers, stored in air-tight, clear containers, are good candidates for freezing for future use. (Label and date items to jog your memory regarding contents.)\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Learn Label Lingo:\u003c/strong> Expiration dates like “sell by,” “use by” and “best before” may indicate when a food item is at its optimal quality, says Bloom, but don’t necessarily equate to a ‘toss by” date. Your nose, eyes, and taste buds are often the best indication that something has gone off. This \u003ca href=\"http://www.webmd.com/food-recipes/guide/do-food-expiration-dates-matter\">guide to expiration dates\u003c/a> can also help you determine whether to dish up a food or ditch it in the compost.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Embrace Imperfect Foods:\u003c/strong> Chef Guarnaschelli encouraged panel participants to “buy something imperfect today.” A gently bruised peach can go in a smoothie, an oddly-shaped egg can find a home in an omelette, a slightly soft avocado might wind up in a dip. “Imperfect doesn’t mean inedible,” adds Bloom, who advises cutting off bruises and blemishes on produce. Bonus: As anyone who has shopped the Berkeley Bowl seconds section knows, less than stellar looking fruits and veggies cost less too.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Cook creatively:\u003c/strong> Conference panelist \u003ca href=\"http://www.rickbayless.com/\">Rick Bayless\u003c/a>, the chef-restaurateur, cookbook author, and television personality who has long focused on Mexican cuisine, says that Americans need to become a culture of cooks to prevent waste. Instead of giving cooking lessons, he notes, professional chefs should give anti-food waste lessons. “‘Food waste'” is a first-world problem,” adds Bayless, “in the rest of the world, what we think of as waste gets eaten.” A roast chicken, say, can form the basis of a dinner. Leftover meat goes in tacos, salads, or sandwiches. The carcass can make soup stock.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/compost1.istock.jpg\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/compost1.istock.jpg\" alt=\"compost\" title=\"compost\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43641\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Preserve Abundant Produce:\u003c/strong> Canning excess tomatoes, jamming extra apricots, pickling surplus green beans, are all ways of extending produce life and adding to a kitchen pantry, in households with the skills, time, and interest in taking on such projects.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Compost with Care:\u003c/strong> Most landfills are packed with discarded food scraps that are unlikely to ever break down. But rotten food will biodegrade and can be recycled as compost. That said, Bloom encourages consumers to try to use food before composting it, since composting has a carbon footprint. “Composting is great,” he says, “but producing too much food, and then composting the excess to then grow more food is a broken approach.”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Give Away Excess:\u003c/strong> \u003ca href=\"http://www.shareable.net/blog/gleaning-for-good-an-old-idea-is-new-again\">Glean\u003c/a> from your own garden (or kitchen) and find a food bank, homeless shelter, or food pantry who could put these edibles to use.

Anyone guilty of forgetting pantry items long past their expiration date? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>American consumers are good at allowing food to go bad. Consider these staggering statistics, mostly gleaned from a recent expert panel on food waste at the Sustainable Foods Institute, a media conference held in conjunction with the \u003ca href=\"http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/vi/vi_events/cooking/\">Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Cooking for Solutions\u003c/a> events:\u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>Almost 40 percent of the food grown and produced in the United States isn’t eaten.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The typical household wastes one quarter of all perishable edibles that come into the kitchen.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Every day the U.S. wastes enough food to fill the Rose Bowl, which seats 90,000.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The U.S. is the number one waster of food in the world, yet 1 out of 6 in this country go hungry.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The average American household allows $500 worth of produce to spoil a year and wastes around $2,200 worth of food annually.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Some 97 percent of discarded food ends up in landfills, where it produces methane, a greenhouse gas about 25 times as potent as carbon dioxide.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ol>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/moldy.leftovers.istock.jpg\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/moldy.leftovers.istock.jpg\" alt=\"mold in cup\" title=\"mold in cup\" width=\"403\" height=\"298\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43643\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chew on those numbers for a minute. Then find ideas below from panelists like food waste expert \u003ca href=\"http://www.wastedfood.com/\">Jonathan Bloom\u003c/a>, author of \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.americanwastelandbook.com/\">American Wasteland\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, and celebrity chef \u003ca href=\"http://www.butterrestaurant.com/#/about\">Alex Guarnaschelli\u003c/a>, who took part in \u003ca href=\"http://www.foodnetwork.com/food-network-specials/the-big-waste/index.html\">“The Big Waste,”\u003c/a> a Food Network show in which chefs prepared a feast for 100 using food destined for the trash. \u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Buy Less:\u003c/strong> Shop more often and purchase just the food items you need. If frequent, smaller trips to the grocery store or farmers market aren’t an option, then plan meals and make a detailed shopping list to keep impulse and excess buying in check. Consumers need to get over the mind set, Broom cautions, of filling the fridge to the brim. And if you’re a weekly shopper, leave one or two nights open for repurposing leftovers.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Rethink Portion Size:\u003c/strong> Most cooks want to feed family and friends well and err on the side of generous servings. But such thinking contributes to a phenomenon known as plate waste: Uneaten food headed straight for the compost bin or (worse) garbage pail. Instead, try small servings the first time around, and place seconds within easy reach on the table. Or serve food family style, where individuals can help themselves. As one conference participant pointed out, overeating is a form of food waste too and many eaters feel compelled by culture or conditioning to eat everything dished up for dinner.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Love Leftovers:\u003c/strong> Pack that extra pasta and salad (keep dressing on the side to avoid gluggy greens) into containers for the next day’s work or school lunch. Or turn leftovers into an entirely new dish for a future dinner: Excess chicken can make its way into a rice bowl or pasta dish. A pot of beans can be transformed into a soup or stew. Stale bread, as \u003ca href=\"http://www.tamareadler.com/\">Tamar Adler\u003c/a> notes in her ode to \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/22/opinion/thanksgiving-thrift-the-holiday-as-a-model-for-sustainable-cooking.html?pagewanted=all\"> sustainable cooking\u003c/a>, \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.tamareadler.com/book/about/\">An Everlasting Meal\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, can find a happy home in bread soup (\u003cem>pappa al pomodoro\u003c/em>) or salad (\u003cem>panzanella\u003c/em>).\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/moldy.bread_.istock.jpg\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/moldy.bread_.istock.jpg\" alt=\"moldy bread\" title=\"moldy bread\" width=\"471\" height=\"255\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43642\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Make the Freezer a Friend:\u003c/strong> Lots of food items get a second chance thanks to the freezer. Extra stock, pasta sauce, or tomato paste can be stored in individual servings in an ice cube tray. Ripening fruit such as berries or bananas (peeled) can go from freezer to smoothies or baked goods. Bread and rice freeze well, as do nuts, which are less likely to go rancid in the cold. Most leftovers, stored in air-tight, clear containers, are good candidates for freezing for future use. (Label and date items to jog your memory regarding contents.)\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Learn Label Lingo:\u003c/strong> Expiration dates like “sell by,” “use by” and “best before” may indicate when a food item is at its optimal quality, says Bloom, but don’t necessarily equate to a ‘toss by” date. Your nose, eyes, and taste buds are often the best indication that something has gone off. This \u003ca href=\"http://www.webmd.com/food-recipes/guide/do-food-expiration-dates-matter\">guide to expiration dates\u003c/a> can also help you determine whether to dish up a food or ditch it in the compost.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Embrace Imperfect Foods:\u003c/strong> Chef Guarnaschelli encouraged panel participants to “buy something imperfect today.” A gently bruised peach can go in a smoothie, an oddly-shaped egg can find a home in an omelette, a slightly soft avocado might wind up in a dip. “Imperfect doesn’t mean inedible,” adds Bloom, who advises cutting off bruises and blemishes on produce. Bonus: As anyone who has shopped the Berkeley Bowl seconds section knows, less than stellar looking fruits and veggies cost less too.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Cook creatively:\u003c/strong> Conference panelist \u003ca href=\"http://www.rickbayless.com/\">Rick Bayless\u003c/a>, the chef-restaurateur, cookbook author, and television personality who has long focused on Mexican cuisine, says that Americans need to become a culture of cooks to prevent waste. Instead of giving cooking lessons, he notes, professional chefs should give anti-food waste lessons. “‘Food waste'” is a first-world problem,” adds Bayless, “in the rest of the world, what we think of as waste gets eaten.” A roast chicken, say, can form the basis of a dinner. Leftover meat goes in tacos, salads, or sandwiches. The carcass can make soup stock.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/compost1.istock.jpg\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2012/05/compost1.istock.jpg\" alt=\"compost\" title=\"compost\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-43641\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Preserve Abundant Produce:\u003c/strong> Canning excess tomatoes, jamming extra apricots, pickling surplus green beans, are all ways of extending produce life and adding to a kitchen pantry, in households with the skills, time, and interest in taking on such projects.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Compost with Care:\u003c/strong> Most landfills are packed with discarded food scraps that are unlikely to ever break down. But rotten food will biodegrade and can be recycled as compost. That said, Bloom encourages consumers to try to use food before composting it, since composting has a carbon footprint. “Composting is great,” he says, “but producing too much food, and then composting the excess to then grow more food is a broken approach.”\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Give Away Excess:\u003c/strong> \u003ca href=\"http://www.shareable.net/blog/gleaning-for-good-an-old-idea-is-new-again\">Glean\u003c/a> from your own garden (or kitchen) and find a food bank, homeless shelter, or food pantry who could put these edibles to use. It’s a win-win: You’ll feel good about \u003ca href=\"http://www.shareable.net/blog/how-to-glean-for-good\">feeding someone who is hungry\u003c/a> and free yourself from guilt over food waste.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ol>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>“The Big Waste” on the Food Network explores restaurant food waste — and turns it into a gourmet meal for a crowd.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They tell me “it’s fun” and “it’s good to help people” while school principal Maurice Harper, Jr. confides that, “Many of our school’s families benefit directly from food assistance. So involving students in a hands-on way empowers them.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A majority of the food bank’s volunteers come as part of a group: company sponsored employee associations, Girl and Boy Scouts troops, religious organizations—one cohort in their 70’s and 80’s arrives faithfully every 2 weeks to fill backpacks for the Children’s BackPack Program, which provides low-income school children a bag of food to help their families through the weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/the-colliers.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/the-colliers.jpg\" alt=\"the colliers\" title=\"the colliers\" width=\"560\" height=\"429\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-36447\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking distinguished even in their hairnets, Oakland residents, George and Jane Collier, both retired anthropology professors from Stanford University, have been volunteering at the food bank for the past three years.

But it’s as surely a part of this holiday season as tinsel trimmed trees and spinning dreidels. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, instead of ignoring the hunger epidemic, I joined many pairs of willing hands to do something about it at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.accfb.org\">Alameda County Community Food Bank\u003c/a>. I attended a \u003ca href=\"http://www.accfb.org/volunteer.html\">volunteer\u003c/a> orientation, sorted cans, bagged pears and was stunned by the enormity of the operation—and the exploding need. A 44,000 square foot sorting room and 77,000 square feet of storage combine to accommodate almost 3 acres of food items—of which more than half is farm-fresh produce. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/wall-of-corn.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/wall-of-corn.jpg\" alt=\"wall of corn\" title=\"wall of corn\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-36454\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The demand for food assistance is now so great that the turnover time for all the edibles in this gigantic facility is less than 1 month.

A group of 5th graders from St. Martin de Porres Catholic School in Oakland are eagerly bagging pears. They tell me “it’s fun” and “it’s good to help people” while school principal Maurice Harper, Jr. confides that, “Many of our school’s families benefit directly from food assistance. So involving students in a hands-on way empowers them.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A majority of the food bank’s volunteers come as part of a group: company sponsored employee associations, Girl and Boy Scouts troops, religious organizations—one cohort in their 70’s and 80’s arrives faithfully every 2 weeks to fill backpacks for the Children’s BackPack Program, which provides low-income school children a bag of food to help their families through the weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/the-colliers.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/the-colliers.jpg\" alt=\"the colliers\" title=\"the colliers\" width=\"560\" height=\"429\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-36447\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking distinguished even in their hairnets, Oakland residents, George and Jane Collier, both retired anthropology professors from Stanford University, have been volunteering at the food bank for the past three years. They enjoy the work “because it’s socially important, flexible, good exercise and you get to meet interesting people.” Today the couple is divvying up 50-pound sacks of pinto beans, scooping out 5 pounds of speckled legumes into separate plastic bags. Jane admits that she likes bean duty, compared to certain summertime assignments, such as sorting plums and kiwis, “which can get a little squishy.” As specialists in indigenous cultures of southern Mexico, the couple is worldly, well–traveled and appalled at the state of American society today. “Even the poorest indigenous people in southern Mexico have subsistence farming to grow themselves something to eat,“ says George. “The extreme income inequality in America is not found in other countries and it’s only recently—since Reagan—that we have so many homeless and hungry people.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/pears.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/12/pears.jpg\" alt=\"pears\" title=\"pears\" width=\"560\" height=\"339\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-36450\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I find the repetitive motion of bagging scores of firm, green pears or scooping mounds of speckled beans somehow makes palpable the overwhelming hunger needs in our food-rich state.

Photo by \u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/koshi/5235358701/\">Koshi\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I've only been a resident of the Bay Area since 2006, but it's felt like home the moment I ditched my New York City zip code for the \"Best Coast.\" One of the reasons I moved out here is because it's a mecca for folks who love the great outdoors, and as a lifelong cyclist, I can't imagine another place I'd rather live and play. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ironically enough, it wasn't until I left New York that I heard about \u003ca href=\"http://cranksgiving.org\">Cranksgiving\u003c/a>. This is an annual food drive that's been going strong since 1999. It was originally organized by a group of NYC bike messengers and follows the \"\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alleycat_races\">alley cat\u003c/a>\" format of street racing. Alleycats emulate a typical bike messenger's day. There is a \"manifest\" that lists the \"checkpoints\" -- rather like the multiple stops messengers make on their delivery route. During a typical alleycat, an individual stationed at the checkpoint will sign the manifest as proof that the participant came by. With Cranksgiving, the supermarkets serve as the checkpoints, and racers buy a list of groceries that goes directly to food pantries and other non-profit organizations. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cranksgiving has spread around the country, and there are now over 30 benefit races at last count. San Francisco didn't have one in 2006, so I and a group of bike-fanatic friends launched the \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermarket_Street_Sweep\">Supermarket Street Sweep\u003c/a> (yes, the name is a riff on the \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermarket_Sweep\">old game show\u003c/a>) to help the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sffoodbank.org/\">San Francisco Food Bank\u003c/a>. The Sweep also adheres to the alleycat street race style, but there are two categories: Speed and Cargo. For the Speed category, cyclists race to supermarkets as fast as they can to buy all of the items on their list. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/11/shopping.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/11/shopping-e1322547063950.jpg\" alt=\"shopping\" title=\"shopping\" width=\"550\" height=\"412\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-36003\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in a hilly city like San Francisco, that's no easy feat. Contestants who'd like to be winning contenders are not only fit, but also possess excellent navigational skills and the ability to plot the best route just like a regular bicycle messenger. And it doesn't hurt to be able to charm your way to the front of the checkout line to expedite paying for your groceries ahead of your competitors. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Cargo category focuses on racers bringing back as much food as humanly possible from five supermarkets around the city. (The route isn't nearly as challenging as the Speed category as the emphasis is on the amount of food competitors are able to bring back.) One notable winner in 2009, Jeremiah Ducate, brought in a whopping 962 lbs. You can watch him pedaling to victory in this video. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube //www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWFtW90DZx8]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While not everyone is a he-man like Jeremiah, it's pretty impressive how much food folks are able to stuff in panniers, baskets and backpacks. The Sweep has raised over 20,000 pounds of food and close to $5000 in cash, which is the equivalent of 37,333 meals.

This is an annual food drive that's been going strong since 1999. It was originally organized by a group of NYC bike messengers and follows the \"\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alleycat_races\">alley cat\u003c/a>\" format of street racing. Alleycats emulate a typical bike messenger's day. There is a \"manifest\" that lists the \"checkpoints\" -- rather like the multiple stops messengers make on their delivery route. During a typical alleycat, an individual stationed at the checkpoint will sign the manifest as proof that the participant came by. With Cranksgiving, the supermarkets serve as the checkpoints, and racers buy a list of groceries that goes directly to food pantries and other non-profit organizations. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cranksgiving has spread around the country, and there are now over 30 benefit races at last count. San Francisco didn't have one in 2006, so I and a group of bike-fanatic friends launched the \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermarket_Street_Sweep\">Supermarket Street Sweep\u003c/a> (yes, the name is a riff on the \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermarket_Sweep\">old game show\u003c/a>) to help the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sffoodbank.org/\">San Francisco Food Bank\u003c/a>. The Sweep also adheres to the alleycat street race style, but there are two categories: Speed and Cargo. For the Speed category, cyclists race to supermarkets as fast as they can to buy all of the items on their list. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Contestants who'd like to be winning contenders are not only fit, but also possess excellent navigational skills and the ability to plot the best route just like a regular bicycle messenger. And it doesn't hurt to be able to charm your way to the front of the checkout line to expedite paying for your groceries ahead of your competitors. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Cargo category focuses on racers bringing back as much food as humanly possible from five supermarkets around the city. (The route isn't nearly as challenging as the Speed category as the emphasis is on the amount of food competitors are able to bring back.) One notable winner in 2009, Jeremiah Ducate, brought in a whopping 962 lbs. You can watch him pedaling to victory in this video. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/qWFtW90DZx8'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/qWFtW90DZx8'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While not everyone is a he-man like Jeremiah, it's pretty impressive how much food folks are able to stuff in panniers, baskets and backpacks.

Her list, and the fact that right now, like so many of us, I am luckily rich in friends, family, and good intentions, and not-so-rich in disposable income, have got me thinking even more about value this time of year. About surplus. About what we use to get what we need, and how we can support the needs of others--friends, family, your community, your neighborhood and beyond. This holiday season, what do you have that can bring delight and deliciousness to those you love, while keeping your money out of the coffers of the big corporations? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How about chocolate?

What do you like best to make? It's a little late in the season to make jam, but there's always apple butter, pear butter, slow-roasted quince paste (so tasty with cheese), \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2010/01/21/friendship-and-homemade-meyer-lemon-marmalade/\">Meyer lemon marmalade\u003c/a> or tangy lemon chutney. \u003ca href=\"http://www.workshopsf.org\">WorkshopSF\u003c/a> has classes in beer-making, tea-blending, cheese-making, even vintage apron sewing coming up in December; take one yourself, or take a friend along. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Does everyone rave about your ramen, your cranberry bread, your caramel apple pie? Do you want to share your mom's recipes with everyone who loves her? There are dozens of \u003ca href=\"http://www.blurb.com/\">print-on-demand services\u003c/a> that let you turn those scribbled-on recipe cards into a surprisingly chic and stylish personal cookbook. Pop-up holiday markets are also a good place to find quirkily perfect host/ess gifts made by your friends and neighbors. On Dec. 9, La Cocina is holding its \u003ca href=\"http://www.lacocinasf.org/events/giftbazaarsf2011/\">3rd Annual Gift Bazaar\u003c/a>, featuring unique products developed in La Cocina's incubator kitchen in the Mission. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or, depending on what you have to spare, you can give money, time, or expertise to organizations who redistribute the wealth across the Bay Area's tables.

This holiday season, what do you have that can bring delight and deliciousness to those you love, while keeping your money out of the coffers of the big corporations? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How about chocolate? There are lots of \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2010/12/16/10-great-local-bay-area-holiday-chocolate-gifts/\">locally-made chocolate treats\u003c/a> available to sweeten your holidays. Or you can make your own with this \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2011/02/01/homemade-truffles-for-valentines-day/\">easy chocolate truffle recipe\u003c/a>. \u003ca href=\"http://www.dandelionchocolate.com\">Dandelion\u003c/a>'s bean-to-bar chocolate store will be opening in San Francisco next month or early next year; until then, find them at local farmers' markets, including the Mission Community Market and the Noe Valley Farmers' Market. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the explosion of books, classes, and blogs dedicated to food preservation for fun (or profit), it's easy to spend a little time whipping up a gift batch of something, especially if you turn the simmering or brewing into an all-afternoon stir-and-gossip session. What do you like best to make? It's a little late in the season to make jam, but there's always apple butter, pear butter, slow-roasted quince paste (so tasty with cheese), \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2010/01/21/friendship-and-homemade-meyer-lemon-marmalade/\">Meyer lemon marmalade\u003c/a> or tangy lemon chutney. \u003ca href=\"http://www.workshopsf.org\">WorkshopSF\u003c/a> has classes in beer-making, tea-blending, cheese-making, even vintage apron sewing coming up in December; take one yourself, or take a friend along. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Does everyone rave about your ramen, your cranberry bread, your caramel apple pie? Do you want to share your mom's recipes with everyone who loves her? There are dozens of \u003ca href=\"http://www.blurb.com/\">print-on-demand services\u003c/a> that let you turn those scribbled-on recipe cards into a surprisingly chic and stylish personal cookbook. Pop-up holiday markets are also a good place to find quirkily perfect host/ess gifts made by your friends and neighbors. On Dec. 9, La Cocina is holding its \u003ca href=\"http://www.lacocinasf.org/events/giftbazaarsf2011/\">3rd Annual Gift Bazaar\u003c/a>, featuring unique products developed in La Cocina's incubator kitchen in the Mission. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or, depending on what you have to spare, you can give money, time, or expertise to organizations who redistribute the wealth across the Bay Area's tables. Did one (or ten) of your Facebook friends and Twitter followers post Mary Risley's hysterically practical YouTube video, Just Put the F*cking Turkey in the Oven? Now, with over 100,000 hits, let's hope she can make the follow-up, \u003cb>Just Give Your F*cking Leftovers to Food Runners\u003c/b>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe width=\"500\" height=\"284\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/foA0MGUbYH0\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Risley isn't just a cooking teacher, she's the founder of \u003ca href=\"http://foodrunners.org\">Food Runners\u003c/a>, which moves thousands of pounds of fresh, useful leftover food from restaurants, grocery stores, and catering businesses into the kitchens of shelters, low-income senior and youth programs, and other organizations that serve the needy.

Each week, a different organic farm in Marin lets locals pick through their already-harvested fields for not-quite-as-pretty (but just as delicious) produce. The boxes of fresh, local veggies are distributed directly to schools in Marin. Afterward, gleaners can pick a round for themselves.

Both offer an intriguing roster of thought-provoking events, talks, and panel discussions. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At \u003ca href=\"http://www.headlands.org/index.asp?flashok=true\">Headlands Center for the Arts\u003c/a>, performances, artists' presentations, and gallery talks are often preceded by a communal meal in the old mess hall. Sometimes, however, the meal itself is the event, as local or visiting artists and chefs come together to get inspired by the palette of the windswept, (supposedly) ghost-ridden landscape of the Marin Headlands, using mostly local and mostly organic produce, meats, and fish as their medium. Have more time than money? \u003ca href=\"http://www.headlands.org/article.asp?key=32\">Volunteers\u003c/a> are often needed to help in the kitchen, set up, serve, and clean up. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elsewhere in Marin, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.malt.org/help/volunteer.php\">Marin Agricultural Land Trust (MALT)\u003c/a>, which works to preserve farmland in Marin while educating the public about conservation, is currently accepting volunteers for its two training sessions in January and February.

Each week, a different organic farm in Marin lets locals pick through their already-harvested fields for not-quite-as-pretty (but just as delicious) produce. The boxes of fresh, local veggies are distributed directly to schools in Marin. Afterward, gleaners can pick a round for themselves.

They're also fun. \"We get volunteers from 18 on up -- at our last event we had eight young adults from the Coast Guard -- and everyone had a good time sharing stories in the kitchen and around a table at a potluck afterwards,\" says Olson. \"There's nothing like food to build community.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To learn more about how to start something similar in your area or to sign up for future community canning events, visit \u003ca href=\"http://site.preservesonoma.com/LET_S_PRESERVE.html\">Let's Preserve\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Do you know of similar efforts in your area?
