  15. What kind of food do they have?

    Food pantries offer grocery-style items such as canned food, fresh produce, and dry goods like pasta or rice that you can cook yourself.

All of these locations may have different options on different days, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.

    Pantries may have different options at different times, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day. Most pantries in 19142 do give out some form of vegetables, but they may be canned items.

  17. Do they have meat?

    Pantries may have different options on different days, so it’s hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.
