Now I'm not sure why it happens over in USA, but in my country the reason we throw away our food is because of health and safety regulations and all that blah blah blah. Sometimes though you might be able to get a free meal

This is extremely inappropriate, basically stealing from hard working businesses just to feed some dumb lazy person.
