Caviar for the homeless. What a stupid fucking idea. Police in Milan recently confiscated 88 lbs of prime caviar from a bunch of smugglers, the value of which is estimated to be north of a half-million dollars. Instead of destroying the caviar, officials decided to donate the heavenly delicacy to the Red Cross who will then provide it to the homeless throughout Milan.
Here's why it's a stupid idea: your average homeless person is presumably not going to enjoy the caviar. Given the choice between salty fish eggs or spaghetti and meatballs, he's probably going to go with the pasta dish. Why not sell the caviar to restaurants and specialty stores and use the cash to buy the homeless food with more substance? Hell, they could have turned it into one big money raising event by auctioning off the caviar to the public. Well, hopefully they at least provide plenty of crackers.
