How High Gas Prices Impact Food Banks | Eater
"This New York City food-rescue organization redirects surplus, high-quality food to people in need and has felt fuel-price impacts in its distribution costs: the cost per pound transported rose from $0.18 to $0.21, and average freight costs are up about 20%. Because it rescues and delivers nearly 300,000 pounds of food daily, those increases add up quickly; the organization has also seen vendors donate less produce overall as rising operational costs squeeze suppliers." - Amy McCarthy
