Imagine going to your local food bank and walking away with a $60 steak.

, the meat producer been donating its steaks to those in need of food assistance instead. For the Bay Area, that meant $2 million worth of American Wagyu will be distributed by the non-profit TogetherSF to organizations including San Francisco-Marin Food Bank, La Cocina, Meals on Wheels, Self Help for the Elderly, and public housing sites.

“It’s kind of a random thing to have come up, but it’ll be really nice to see people’s faces when they get something they really weren’t expecting,” TogetherSF’s Kanishka Karunaratne Cheng told the paper. “It’s so rewarding.”and discovered that San Francisco wasn’t the only area receiving restaurant-quality steaks from the same company. Snake River Farms is one of four premium brands operated by Idaho’s Agri Beef, and as a whole, they’ve reportedly been donating meat from coast to coast.

"We are firm believers that in times of crisis, food can bring comfort and healing,” Jay Theiler, Executive Director of Marketing at Snake River Farms, said in the second announcement. “We care deeply and are grateful to everyone on the front lines that are risking their own health for the sake of all of us, restaurant workers who have been displaced and our community members who are in need.

Theiler also stated that “we are all in this together”—which is true… though some of us have nicer steak than the rest of us, so it’s good to hear they are sharing it with those in need.

If you need to go to the food bank to eat- then you deserve it

Good.

Imagine not knowing what wagyu is and people throwing it away for being too fatty 😳

Explains the lines

❤ SRF

omw

It would have been tastier had this fact not been publicised😟

Where!!!!! Where!!!!!

This is a blessing for the people going to the foodbank. A happy story.

Would you rather it rot and be thrown out? Poor people are worthy of good food too.

trying to understand your tone because of the punctuation. are you excited about this or are you condemning this? i mean, imagine going to your local food bank and walking away with a $60 steak! is a great thing to witness, no? please clarify.

The steaks can be seared over the dumpster fire that is our country right now

So.....instead of a headline that highlights the lovely way Idaho Snake River Farms is supporting people experiencing food insecurity, you chose to go with a click-bait dig at the idea of a food bank distributing high-end product? Interesting moral compass.
