Moving food to a poor town in the US from somewhere else is a trivial task. Africa has its own set of problems.

You're missing the point, but long as we are trivializing complex social issues, let's ask why there are 13 million hungry kids in the US. https://www.nokidhungry.org/problem/hunger-facts

No need to ask: lack of nutritional education and income inequality.
Please help me understand. Why would Africans need unhealthy, pesticide-infested food from America? Unless it is a country ravaged with wars, sponsored by the same, America? We can grow our own food.
