Not any more unsanitary than allowing the homeless to dig through the trash That's not something I'm directly contributing to since I take any leftovers with me when I eat out. The biggest problem is local health laws that prohibit restaurants from donating unsold food to homeless centers. Several cities on the east coast have changed this and the food is picked up by volunteers and is distributed to centers and the homeless. I'll hand my leftovers to a homeless person if I pass one by, but leaving it lying around invites disease and increases trash. Isn't this kind of thing what contributed to the Black Plague in Europe? I'd like to know if cities that this is done in has seen an increase in littering from the food getting blown around, thrown on the ground by uncaring people and an increase in having sanitation workers pick up the food when it's not picked up by the homeless. And who's to say the food will end up in the homeless' hands?
