The same food you’ll see at the dollar store.

Slightly expired MREs.

I knew some folks that used to own a "dented can" grocery store named Dirt Cheap Grocery. They would find all sorts of deals on entire lots of nearly expired canned and frozen goods and what ever various other things they could find through their various connections. There would always be something different, and they would have some pretty incredible deals sometimes. I remember buying an entire case of frozen hash brown patties for $5. There were six 5 lb bags in there. we split it up with my wife's sisters families. Another time they had those Michelina's frozen pasta dishes that had just expired for 10 for $1. My favorite deodorant scent had been recently discontinued and they just so happened to get a hold of a big display bin full of hundreds of them and sold them for $1 a piece. It took me several years before I finally ran out...

Canned rice.

That's such a weird thing to can but it's a thing in the US.

A thrift store selling food sounds like the food bank after a canned food drive.

canned food just at or past the expiry date.

Taco Bell, but not from like an actual Taco Bell, from one of those food court “express” ones with the limited menu that’s always out of something like sour cream.

Can't believe no one has said fruitcake yet

Leftover snacks, of course

Grocery discounters exist. They sell expired, distressed (torn labels, box tears, dents), test-marketed foods that failed, overage, etc.

Or see the Manager's Special section in your favorite supermarket.

I guess I was thinking more prepared/restaurant food.

Check your supermarket deli for discounted foods at the end of their "best by" time.

Stuff that would be thrown away otherwise? Its crazy how much regular stores throw in the bin.

Go container guys! Dumpstermap.org

The local ones have a freezer with ice cream novelties, much as you'd see in a convenience mar. I assume there's a business synergy of having kids who have to look through 500 slightly differently sized used "size 12 jeans" to find the ones that fit, and buying their compliance with desserts.

The feferonis from my kebabs, kebab pizzas and gyros.

That sandwich is made of recycled old sandwiches.

Nearly expiring or expired grains, cereals, and other long shelf life foods and ingredients like canned stuff, sugar, etc

half finished bags of trailmix

I rhink I've heard them called freight damage or scratch and dent grocers but this is already a thing.

Bulk bins of raw grain straight from the field, bring your own container and serve yourself.

You ever seen that Morgan Spurlock bit about the recycled burgers?

It would be Aldi
