NBC: Migrants Complain of ‘Rotten' NYC Shelter Meals — But Mayor Implies They're Just Picky


Raw, cold and expired. That's how refugees living at the Row Hotel in Manhattan describe the food they're being served by the city.


Those who are being housed in the Times Square hotel point to pasta covered in spoonfuls of grease and meatballs that are frozen in the middle when they're served. They are also pushing back against shelter staff who told the New York Post that they are wasting taxpayer dollars by refusing to eat the free meals.


"Sometimes the food smells bad. Rotten. And every time the children eat food, it's like that they got food poisoning," said one mother, Diana, who is staying at the shelter with her two children.
