Not happy with this but people in need should hit up the local food bank. I started volunteering last year and the quantity of food provided is quite substantial. There are some issues with those people that do not have the ability to cook food or refrigerate such, but in my town, the offerings look pretty good.

USDA cuts in the funding for its food bank program earlier in the year make that less useful than it ought to be.
