Here's a question that I've pondered for some time: On a television program, this company was gathering food scraps from restaurant dumpsters to feed their worms. The scraps contained all types of bread, veggies,noodles and even meats. I thought these things would contain a lot of salts and produce a potentially toxic product for plants. Can these things be fed to worms to produce usable castings?
If so, there are bakery outlets here where hog farmers get truck loads of stale bread, I could certainly feed some worms with that.
