Well, I'll pay a little extra for hygiene insurance, myself. Still, I understand the indignation over the staggering amount of decent food that gets tossed every day. <p>

I once worked in a supermarket. A major chain. The milk supplier in our area was the same for each major chain. The labels on the jugs were the only things that varied. <p>

One morning a truck driver accidentally left a tall pallet of milk at our market that was meant for a competitor chain. <p>

The manager put a checker on duty, for a full shift that day, doing nothing but pouring each and every perfectly good container of milk into the sink. Wow.
