Freegan

Someone that consumes a vegan diet except when animal-based food will be wasted if not consumed. Freegans often consume all types of food from dumpster diving as a means to alleviate waste and decrease their personal environmental impact and solar footprint.
Meuser is freegan - though he eats vegan at home, I've seen him eat whole ramekins of butter and mayonnaise that would otherwise be wasted after we've finished eating at Denver diner.

Freegan Leaning

A person who is Freegan Leaning identifies as someone who likes free food. A Freegan Leaning person is a true pragmatist and has achieved a level of spiritual attainment. A Freegan Leaning person believes that the best thing is food given freely by the earth, but free food from a friend is the next best thing. Freegan Leaning people also don’t mind working for a meal, because if you don’t work you won’t eat, and if nobody works nobody eats. Freegan Leaning people keep in the fronts of their minds because of long experience, that free food tastes the best :) .
My younger cousin’s excitable, boisterous, Labrador Retriever was a highly accomplished Freegan Leaning dog. The dog took to food of any kind with gusto. Free food dropped during the Fourth of July was clearly his favorite. However he was more than willing to work for a meal and sit, roll over, or bark for a well earned treat. Accomplished Freegan Leaning dogs like Vinny have clearly earned new lives in a paradise realm.

Many people are unaware of their Freegan Leaning tendencies. Most people don’t bother to think about how good free food tastes, if they did, they might achieve the first level of Freegan Leaning awareness.
