Pope Francis Tables Quotations

Throwing away food is like stealing from the table of those who are poor and hungry.

We should all remember... that throwing food away is like stealing from the tables of the poor, the hungry! I encourage everyone to reflect on the problem of thrown away and wasted food to identify ways and means that, by seriously addressing this issue, are a vehicle of solidarity and sharing with the needy.

Let us remember well, however, that whenever food is thrown out it is as if it were stolen from the table of the poor, from the hungry!

Let us leave a spare place at our table: a place for those who lack the basics, who are alone.
