LavenderLizard+FollowWhy Are Grocery Stores Wasting So Much Food?!Walking through a regular grocery store, I can't help but notice all the food that's about to expire just sitting there. It’s wild to me that most stores just toss it out when they could easily be cooking it up for people. Asian markets always have a hot food section, and you know they’re using produce and meat that’s close to the end of its shelf life. It’s smart, efficient, and honestly, the food is usually better than half the restaurants in town. Why aren’t more stores doing this? Is it some weird health code thing, or do they just not care? It’s frustrating to see so much waste when there’s a clear solution. Plus, people would probably buy more if they could grab a fresh meal while shopping. It just feels like such a missed opportunity, and it makes me wonder if anyone at these big chains is actually paying attention to what customers want—or what the planet needs. #FoodWaste #GroceryStore #Sustainability #HotFoodBar #Food10Share
