What Happens to the Leftover Caviar Potatoes from the Oscars?

The Hollywood elite who are invited to the exclusive Oscars afterparty aren’t the only ones who dine like aristocracy after the awards show. A lot of the food ends up feeding the homeless on Skid Row.

After this Sunday’s Academy Awards ceremony, the stars attending the Governors Ball will be greeted by bountiful presentations of oysters, multiple Jamon Iberico legs, 24-karat gold covered chocolate Oscars and uni with eggless custard, dashi, unagi glaze, and bright little bursts of finger lime.

Around 200 chefs and 850 service and support staff will pass food to 1,500 guests, offering some of the most expensive ingredients in the world, including 15 kilos caviar, 35 pounds of black truffles from Burgundy, and 240 kilos of Miyazaki wagyu beef. The latter is so rare only 18,000 of the 28,000 Japanese Black cattle handled by JA Miyazaki meet the criteria to get the moniker.
