A word to the wise!:

It is suggested that cans, bottles and packages from the food bank be washed or wiped before opening. Some supplies in the food bank have been sitting in warehouses for
some time before they
 
  reach the food
bank.

The food bank is not a supermarket

Most products in the food bank are donated. There is no control over product brands or quantities that are given to the food bank. It is possible that not everyone will get what
 
  they want from
the food bank.
