When shopping for donation items, make sure to choose undamaged and unopened packaging, and donate before the labelled expiration date is up. Dented, rusted, or damaged packaging means that food inside might be spoiled and should be thrown out. When in doubt, throw it out. It might seem like a caring gesture to donate homemade foods for your local food drive, but food banks can't accept any foods that aren't commercially packaged.

• Juices (all kinds)
