Comment on "You can't have our trash because we don't have a way to charge you for it"

They don’t actually dump em in the trash. They have a bone barrel where they toss scraps they gets sent off to a facility for processing.

But yeah, if you’re talking to an employee who doesn’t wanna go through the effort of figuring it out, they won’t help you.

I hope you’re right, but I’m in the US, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s only true elsewhere.

I’ve been asking around for a while in order to plan for my holiday cookiing, and got a small amount from another store this morning, but when I asked about getting more another day, they basically said they were doing me a favor and wouldn’t be able to provide more. The reasoning they gave me was that most of the pork they receive now is pretrimmed, but they did say that they could provide lots of beef fat trimmings, if that’s what I wanted. I’m sure that would be close enough (for central American tamales), but I’m already modifying the family recipe a decent amount to work with what I can get locally, so I’m hesitant to make more modifications when I do still have some less convenient options available to acquire the proper ingredients.

  I’m in the US too,though. The bone barrel thing is what they do at the grocery store chain I work at.
  
  Grocery store don’t want to throw anything away. They’d rather make money off of waste than have to pay to dispose of it.
