Re: The stuff that gets chucked out

I often wonder about the amount of food that gets thrown away by multi-national companies.

....my daughter used to work for a small independant supermarket, all the unsold produce was either given to pensioners, a local pig farm and we used to get lettuce etc for the chooks.
A big multi moved in who's policy was not only to chuck everything out, but it went into a giant locked secured bin. Any staff caught taking anything were sacked.  At one stage she told me they were binning upto 50 roast chooks a day.
