Months ago, when I started clicking on the Hunger Site on a daily basis, they would say “Thank you for your contribution of 2 1/2 cups of staple food.” The amount fluctuated between 2 and 2 1/2 for a while, then down to 1 1/2 for a while, and now they’re stuck on 1 cup. WTF? Can’t they get enough advertisers?
