    Isn't it more efficient to make a cash donation to, say, the San Francisco Food Bank, who has negotiated bulk rates with food suppliers and can get matching funds and turns 97% of your donation directly into use, than to go buy cheese doodles at Trader Joe's and let them skim off profits and distribution and packaging costs and send them to German billionaire Theo Albrecht?

    (send the profits, that is, not the packaging costs, although TJ's does do its (un)fair share of that part of the supply chain too)
