What is a “food drive”?
It is a volunteer activity to bring leftover food from homes and offices and donate it to welfare groups and facilities .
In Inagi City, environmental groups, welfare groups such as the Inagi City Council of Social Welfare, and the city are working together to hold a food drive .
The donated food will be given to those who need support through the food bank of Yanokuchi Children's Cafeteria, the Inagi City Council of Social Welfare, the city welfare department, etc.

The difference between "best before" and " expiration date"
"expiry date"
It is about "the expiration date when you can eat deliciously" .
It is often displayed on foods that can be stored for a long time.
It doesn't mean that you can't eat it immediately after the expiration date!
For foods that have passed that period, judge them individually based on their appearance and smell.
"Expiration date"
"The period when it is safe to eat" .
It is often displayed on foods that deteriorate quickly.
It is safer not to eat anything past that.
