It is only lettuce

Yesterday at work one of my coworkers called me over to out Cafe area where he was showing me how much food he to throw away.

it was 4 cases of Lettuce, it expired yesterday but it is vacuumed sealed and keep as cold as you can keep lettuce, and looks as fresh as the day they packed it.

By certain laws and company policies we had to throw it out.

It is a shame that is how we feel about food in this country we have had so much for so long we think nothing of throwing 40 pounds of lettuce in the trash.

Of course part of the reason companies have become paranoid about giving stuff away is because of lawsuits so in some instances you can see why they do just throw it out.
