flag Minnesota food banks warn against donating unsafe or inappropriate items, urging instead unopened non-perishables or cash.

flag Food banks across Minnesota are experiencing heightened demand and funding shortfalls, especially during the holiday season, prompting warnings against donating certain items. flag Perishables without refrigeration, homemade foods, opened or damaged goods, expired products, alcohol, pet food, and hazardous materials are typically not accepted due to safety, storage, or regulatory concerns. flag Donors are urged to give unopened, commercially packaged, non-perishable items like canned vegetables, pasta, rice, and peanut butter, or consider monetary donations, which allow food banks to purchase needed items efficiently. flag Policies vary slightly by location, so checking with local food banks is recommended.
