I had that happen a few years back. I set out a box of canned and dry goods
and some of those "taco kits" that have the shells and seasoning packet -
just add some ground beef. The "healthy" stuff (i.e. veggies) was left but
those taco kits disappeared. And then the postal carrier didn't bother to
pick up the box. I didn't even get a notice about it this year so maybe the
carriers rebelled against the practice.
