California has so many people there are a couple places that specialize in buying up all the stuff that is about to go out of date, and slashing the prices so they sell before the sell by date. That’s the only reason. Also you go there first before Aldi’s, cause you don’t know what they’ll have. They always have milk, bread, eggs, tortillas, and lots of other stuff, but the other stuff is random.

Great for snacks though.

Ohhh so it’s like a food bank over here. Unfortunately you need a card to be eligible to purchase from a food bank but they function on nearly the same principle.

No, it’s a normal store. There’s just so much food that would otherwise go to the food banks that it’s profitable to slash the prices and sell it off this way.
If it doesn’t sell at grocery outlet, then it will go to the food bank.
