Abstract
As we stated in the first chapter, undertaking a critical ethical analysis of charitable food may come as a surprise to some. In practically all cultures throughout the world, feeding the hungry tends to be seen as a positive gesture towards others; an expression of generosity, maybe even a moral duty. Why then is it necessary to consider the ethical dilemmas (in the plural) associated with charitable food? That is the question we have attempted to answer throughout this book.
