Bags of food waste at well known bakers in Romford

[Malibuismysecrethome]

I’m upset to see the bags of food wasted by the Romford branch of a High Street food outlet and their spokesperson saying is goes for renewable energy. A former worker has exposed the practice. Why can’t it be put out at 3.30 pm for school kids and people in food poverty. The binned items include sandwiches.

I just don't see this food poverty at all, in fact I think the food being so readily available, deliverable, cheap then unless it's parental / carer abuse I'm not sure how so many seem to be in food poverty.

Food banks, locally charitable organisations are rife.

Should've gone to Specsavers.

@MrsGinnyM 😂 I see quite well thanks, I'm more concerned about how obese this country (and our kids) are becoming.

Most supermarkets have bins filled with food donations, I agree the retail chains should not waste vast amounts of food though, a lot of them give to the homeless but I guess the ones that just spoil it are hoping to avoid someone suing them for food poisoning or done other legal issue.

This butt is strange fair enough donate to homeless for a organiser to take away, but the schoolchildren bit is weird you would just get kids hanging about each day waiting for handouts.

Exactly. That's quite a bizarre solution to this 'Greggs preparing too much food' problem. Give it out free to schoolchildren? Our nearest High School has 1500 pupils-who will get the doughnut?
