       In #France, it is forbidden to throw away #food in supermarkets. We have different solutions like the Zero-Gaspi = #zeroWaste baskets for 3 E in our village shop. I can feast now: I got 2 leek stalks, 4 chicory salads, 1 sweet pepper, 3 apples and 6 pears. 😊 And my dog Bilbo is happy, if an apple or a pear is overripe - he adores that.Imagine, in former times (and in other countries still now), shops threw away these treasures.

       @NatureMC @Christo Very sad to read this and know that here in Germany it is forbidden to eat food that supermarkets have thrown away. Something clearly wrong here. We should follow France’s great legislation. Food is too precious (also from a CO2 perspective) to throw away, even if supermarket revenue drops.

As people didn't stop it, some big supermarkets poured chlorine bleach into the containers. There were cases of poisoning.This was the moment when people became angry. We had protests, and petitions. The movement against illegality was connected to poverty and ecology. Journalists were interested. Then the petition got so many signatures that @Christo

       @NatureMC @Mastokarl @Christo But it’s OK if the US Government poisoned alcohol. They totally wouldn’t do anything like that now. We love the FBI and CIA, such stand-up all-around humanitarians that only tell the truth and never seek to censor or manipulate elections.https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/06/30/fact-check-u-s-government-poisoned-some-alcohol-during-prohibition/3283701001/
