Instead of the perfectly-fine “expired” food going to the dumpster, feed people. Help the community.

      Second harvest is a charity that specializes in exactly this.

      They pick up food from grocery stores and distribute it.

      There are chapters of second harvest across north america

      Really just depends on the store and where you are. Stores can get tax breaks for it.

      The local Safeway offers it to charity, compost or livestock feed for the farms nearby. All you have to do is head inside and ask.
