Newly dumped supermarket food. In a ghetto, that's a windfall!
Two blocks from my friends place. My friend got take out three blocks from the Key Food almost every night last week.

Subways were down but there were lots of places to eat.
Like it or not, people go a little apeshit when the electricity is down and they're not getting paid. They get various shades of grabby. I saw a lot of people who didn't need food at all grabbing free bar b que and even MREs.

Look - I know there are patches that are remote and almost suburban in the outer Boros where a small part of our population lives where'd you feel stranded.But the East Village isn't it.

The news doesn't tell you what everyone in NY knows- there are always dumpster divers, squatters etc in that hood. much like the Haight. It's not some once in a lifetime thing, LOZl.
