I hear a ton of perfectly fine butter is coming to a dumpster near you.

80,000 pounds of perfectly fine butter is being recalled because the packaging label omits that butter contains milk. 🫠

Who losses out? All the poor people and the general public who would be continuously informed about the contents of those dumpsters.

A simple #policy suggestion: make easy access to retail food waste a requirement. It will help the poorest of the poor, but will also help retailers to be more conscious about their food waste. Are you annoyed by those #DumpsterDivers rummaging your bins? Well, just introduce a #ZeroWaste policy and the problem goes away.
