Check out this great Washington Post article explaining why former FDA commissioner David Kessler hangs around dumpsters at fast-food joints. Kessler was trying to figure out why many of us are junk-food addicts. Here's a teaser:
The high-octane career path of David A. Kessler, the Harvard-trained doctor, lawyer, medical school dean and former commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration had come to this: nocturnal dumpster diving. Sometimes, he would just reach in. Other times, he would climb in.
It took many of these forays until Kessler emerged with his prize: ingredient labels affixed to empty cardboard boxes that spelled out the fats, salt and sugar used to make the Southwestern Eggrolls, Boneless Shanghai Wings and other dishes served by the nation's second-largest restaurant chain.
haha i love the pic that goes with this. where do they serve shanghai wings. anywhere i can get some in los angeles because they sounds salty and delicious lol.

It's pretty obvious how useless the courts and government regulatory bodies are when a guy has to dumpster dive at restaurants to get hold of extremely important information.
