a stall in a public market. In the front are buckets of dried chiles and mounds of prepared mole paste. Behind that are rounded mounds of dried mole paste in different colors. At the back is a shelf full of canned and packaged goods.

Update from Community Food Share, a local food bank.

Stolen funding for food: $1.5M+ in Nov so far for the counties.
