HEB announced that they had served a total of 6,125 plates at the Feast of Sharing on Sunday at the International Center of Trade. Authorities of the store mentioned that they served a significantly fewer amount of plates this year as opposed to last. They think that the reason is that they have traditionally had the event at CC Winn High School or at Eagle Pass High School as has been the norm over the past few years. The organizers hoped to serve 8,000 plates, however there were fewer served this year.
