Yawn... and all that is very subjective.

No need to be rude. I'm discussing this politely... not attacking your opinion.

Just answer one little question - what in your book is litter?

lit·ter /ˈlɪtər/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[lit-er] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun
1. objects strewn or scattered about; scattered rubbish.

Now we'll have to discuss how we define rubbish. ;)

Hell, I'll pre-empt that....

rub·bish /ˈrʌbɪʃ/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[ruhb-ish] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun
1. worthless, unwanted material that is rejected or thrown out

Now seeing as offerings clearly have worth to someone, they can't be absolutely defined as rubbish. Ergo, they're not litter. ;)
