Chapter 9 - Would you eat food out of a garbage can if you were starving?

Well, I think yes. As long as the food are not tampered with and do not have any trash on them.

I once took a few donuts that

had just been put into a dustbin in a bus. We were not poor but we were so hungry at the time.

I used to live in a small town named Pontian and I would go to Johor Bahru city centre to watch new movies.

One day, my friend and I took a bus to the city to watch a new movie, Mr Cinderella. We did not buy any food or drinks before we got into the bus because by the time we arrived at the bus station the bus was departing.

I think we ran out of glucose halfway to the city and when the glucose runs out, we become hungry and hunger pangs set in.

When we saw a box of donuts (It's Dunkin' Donuts) in the dustbin, we looked at each other and smiled.

"Shall we?" I asked.

"Why not?" my friend asked back.

There were less than ten people in the bus and we took two seats at the back. We we so sure that no one would see us.

Since then, we have been calling Dunkin' Donuts as Dustbin Donuts. Most of our friends know about Dustbin Donuts and we will laugh at this every time someone bring this up.
