Here's the Deal--

I love to cook, and I now work at a food Co-op in Wisconsin. Everyday, a variety of items from the store--dairy, produce, meat, pantry items, etc.--get pulled from the shelves because they are past their expiration date (or nearly expired). These abandoned edibles are gently placed in the 'cull bin', and made available for employees to pick up for free and bring home. I grab whatever I can at the end of my shift and attempt to create a dish based on my cull findings later that night. Some will succeed; many will fail. This is their story.
