In a March 16, 2017 letter, a writer calling herself "Grossed Out" describes her father's "dumpster diving" although she doesn't use that term. She's concerned about his serving this food to guests.
After Jeanne Phillips advises her to alert the relatives if she can't convince the father to let them know the source of the food, she adds a much longer PS:
'A World wide trend I heard about recently is something called "freeganism." (The term is derived from a cross between "free" and "vegan.") Freegans "rescue" food from behind markets to share amng themselves to combat food waste, and in Paris, France, there's even a restaurant that serves food procured this way for a reduced fee. ..'
I found an article on this Paris restaurant:
