Also, most of the US population is around the coasts. Shipping a bit of food inland to the people there isn't that big of an impact.
Eh, best to start with stop wasting food, then go with proper calorie count diet. Food waste in America is pretty bad. The gov already does PSAs to try bringing attention to the matter.
