I have seen this go on in restaurants for years. I am also a culinary school graduate, so I was taught by various chefs how to avoid food waste, in addition to figuring out ways to avoid it my own self.

But, it made me so angry. I'm so sick of corporate owned ANYTHING. This, to me, is just another example of how much $$$ they have and power. I can not believe these rules. The fact that they are afraid of losing money b/c of theft from employees is absolutely mind-blowing. They are wasting all this food, don't feed their employees for free who work hard for minimum wage and then throw perfectly good food away. after years of volunteering for meals on wheels and soup kitchen programs, it makes me sick to know how much food is wasted by these corporations. The commenter who said that someone in corportate fast food mentioned that 45 million in food a year is donated...well, to me, that's not good enough. I bet you the total amount of sales of all those 'restaurants' come out to WAY more than that. 45 million most likely adds up to maybe 2 percent at best. they can do better. thanks for an insightful read. amy @ we are never full This was a REALLY interesting and well thought-out post.
