  1. The irony is that it's not supposed to be illegal in any of the 50 states to dumpster dive, since once you throw something away, it belongs to whoever wants it. That hasn't stopped some businesses from putting locks on their dumpsters, or calling the cops on anyone who goes through the dumpsters. It's not just food either, as a lot of non-perishable retail goods are simply thrown out after a certain time, despite still being in new condition. Seems capitalism is very good at creating a lot of waste on purpose.

  2. The article that rates major grocery chains on food waste is citing a 2019 study from the Center for Biological Diversity, if anyone wants to look it up. The ratings are based on whether or not these companies have committed to zero waste by the year 2025. It gave Kroger, Walmart, and Ahold Delhaize top ratings, with Aldi, Target, and Whole Foods just below those. At the bottom were Trader Joe's, Costco, and Publix, as the article mentioned. What this report doesn't mention is the treatment of employees, as you could probably tell from Walmart and Whole Foods showing up on the list, so you have to factor that in separately.
