Food Not Bombs to Mark 40th Anniversary
---------------------------------------

Food Not Bombs is marking its 40th anniversary this weekend. The
worldwide all-volunteer movement recovers food that would otherwise be
discarded and provides free vegan and vegetarian meals in over 1,000
cities in 65 countries. The movement began in 1980 to protest the U.S.
military budget, poverty and destruction of the environment. Food Not
Bombs volunteers have been arrested dozens of times while attempting to
feed the hungry.
