Ever wonder why your local supermarket won't sell day old bread anymore? Even wonder what happens with the stuff at the end of the day from sandwich shops and star bucks?
Go head to the dumpster and see.....
Its a for profit world, ran by corporate greed.......

Its not geedy, everything they don't sell and toss, they lost money on. Greed would be keeping moldy stuff on the shelf until it sold, regardless of foodborn illness risks. Stuff that's sitting out in a case goes bad pretty darn fast.
Lots of Mom and pop operations toss everything end of the day too, pretty standard practice. Primary reason is food borne illness risks, secondary is maintaining a reputation for fresh items and keeping customers coming in the door
