You might not think of restaurant leftovers or day- old bakery items as sought- after food.

((JOSTINA THOMAS/FOOD LION STORE MGR.: WE'RE NOT GETTING ANYTHING IN RETURN. BUT WE ARE GETTING THE SATISFACTION OF HELPING THOSE WHO ARE IN NEED.))

Second Harvest started its Prepared and Perishable Food Program after noticing a decline in the amount of food donated from national manufacturers.
The program's yielded a half- million pounds of food in the last two years, but the NEED continues to rise beyond that.
And that's causing food bank officials to actively pursue both grocery stores and local restaurants.

However, Mitchum says he WOULD feel comfortable donating chili made from leftover hamburger meat.
While there ARE strict guidelines to follow, food bank officials say restaurateurs shouldn't worry about being generous-- because the Good Samaritan Act protects food donors from any liability.
