The COVID-19 pandemic has had lasting effects on many aspects of our lives, and food banks are no exception. To continue providing help in such trying times, these institutions had to evolve into drive-through pantries, where, instead of coming inside, people have the donations put directly into their car’s trunk, thereby minimizing contact and reducing wait times. Having done a lot of good during the pandemic, a number of them continue to operate to this day.
However, some people recently started voicing concerns about such food bank drive-throughs, as they noticed expensive cars lining up for donations in one TikTok video. Netizens couldn’t understand how people with fancy vehicles were struggling for food, and even started worrying that the wealthy were taking advantage of the system.
