Stores pour bleach on fresh produce so nobody can pull out out of the dumpster. They're rather destroy good food than feed a single mouth in need.
They attempt to cover their tracks by allowing their customers to donate to some conjob of a charity at the checkout line. This also provides them with huge tax credits/breaks which is the only real reason they even bother with donation anything.
