Expired or not, in the trash or not, it wasnt the employees, and it was theft.....Ummmm. Once you throw something out, it is no longer owned by anyone. I’ve gone through many trash/cans/dumpsters/ garbage dumps without a warrant when I was a cop. Once it hits the trash can you lose control of it. I was head of Fire/ Safety and Security for Philadelphia State Hospital at one time and we had a ‘client’ who went to the Krispy Kreme up the road at different times of the day. He dumpster dived for the donuts they threw out, brought them back and sold them to the geebers for a dime a piece. I actually had to investigate. The guy told me “I’m crazy, but I’m not stupid” He made $200 a month.

The only problem I see if the enmployees making too much of a product for the express purposes of “thowing it out” at the end of the day...
