Somebody who abstains from
contributing to the
economy and salvages
society's wasted food and resources rather than purchase more themselves. Often pertains to a VEGAN (somebody who doesn't eat/wear animal products) who only makes exceptions when dealing with otherwise wasted items.
Tom taught me that as a
freegan, he would much rather grab bagels out of the dumpster of a
bakery instead of purchasing them himself, because he thinks it's a shame how much perfectly
good bread places like that waste everyday.
