Learning of bodies rotting in food lockers, and decaying chickens and soured milk products being bulldozed into giant waste heaps, Foodie's thoughts about what had been New Orleans' vibrant regional food scene are like wispy, trivial dreams. Life is all about change and movement, yes, but a one week upheaval is simply way too speedy. Even our multi-tasking, hyper-electronically driven brains cannot process adequately what has occurred.
The Houston Food Bank is already strained to the limit as it attempts to feed so many more people. Free food sites in Houston, many of them at local churches, are listed on The Houston Chronicle website. Vegetarian food is available from BAPS Care International, a non profit with 55,000 volunteers worldwide that began its work in 1907, and Kosher meals are free at the Chabad Lubavich Center.
Second Harvester's Food Bank of Greater New Orleans' website remains down but we expect when this group re-surfaces it will need all the help it can get.
Stumble It!
It's great to know that, among the myriad relief organizations, there are ones actually catering to vegetarian and Jewish populations. Thanks for sharing that. I'll pass that information along.
