The part about waste makes sense. Wish that could be channeled to the food banks around the country right now.

I did read an article that I think was based on observance in NYC. It said rats that used to eat out of dumpsters outside of restaurants are now fighting each other over the limited food supply and have even started to cannibalize each other. A stark contrast to before when they had plenty for all of them to eat and never fought over food.
