I used to work at a supermarket that had a little pizza shop inside, in the deli. They'd throw out all the unsold pizza at the end of the night.
I was like, "wait. What? Let us take some home. Or give it to some homeless people"
They were like, "we can't give it away because of liability. And we don't want to attract homeless people. And you can't have it just because "
I'm pretty sure the liability thing is made up. The "don't want homeless to show up" thing is cruel, and not really applicable to rich suburbs.
Well, joke's on them I was friends with the deli guy and he'd "throw out" the pizza directly to me.
