That food had to go somewhere; did they do a big giveaway like sensible people, or did it all just go in the dumpsters so as to not devalue their remaining stocks? I suppose some items might’ve been shipped back to where they came from as well, but they couldn’t possibly do that for everything. Genuinely curious how this shook out in terms of waste mitigation vs profits protection.

    It’d have probably gone straight to the landfill like most of the food stores can’t sell does every day, but the fact the freezers were set to +50C for possibly hours means that very little could be salvageable anyway.
