I'd love to see a reference, a link, anything. The stories I've encountered about true hunger in America all involve other causes besides lack of food. Addictions (spending the food money on drugs or gambling), or pride (people don't want to go on food stamps, or to the soup kitchen, or let the Bishop know).
Again, bcguy's claim is "people are desperate to eat". "I don't wanna go onto food stamps" doesn't qualify as desperate.

And I'd discuss the holy books with the learned men, several hours every day.
That would be the sweetest thing of all.
Ohhh....
If I were a rich man...
