Useless appliances

Man, SPeaking of Garbage Disposals, I remember reading a short story when I was younger about a Privileged Kid who, For Reasons Had to go Help out An Old Poor Lady or somethin' and he finds out she doesn't have a Garbage Disposal and it weirds him out and Like, the end is him sort of refusing to Believe that The Poor Staving Children Down In Africa(which I Am Fairly Sure Was a Recurring Theme and might have been the imputus as to why He was helpin' out the Old Poor Lady, Vis Something Something Food Waste Something Punishment SOmething Something? Idk It was years ago I read this) Weren't Using Dishwashers and Garbage Disposals but sorta framed in a way that made it seem ridiculos and vaguely like the kid himself knew it was kinda ridiculous
