I agree with nccole on this one...although it might reduce the knife usage (and some fun on the job), it is a shame to throw away perfectly good clothes and shoes.

People are capable of many things when they are scared and hungry. It may only be on a local scale, perhaps on a larger scale, but it may not take as much as some think to tip the scales.
