If they’re making actual yeast dough balls you can’t make that to order. You need to prep them and put them in the fridge and if the proof time is too long then they go in the dumpster. If they were hoping for a rush and didn’t get it for whatever reason that could be a lot of dough balls

I agree, but man flour has gone up. It’s probably around $1 for the 3 cups of flour and yeast to make a dough now. Even still, their losses are minimal compared to what they expected to make. Wish they’d just bake the over proofed bread and send it to a shelter though. May not be the best bread but just roll it into loafs real fast and it’ll taste fine

Can you freeze it?

  You can but then you need to thaw it to get it ready, which defeats the purpose in many operations.

I say this as a baker, though. That is a ton of dough. I think way more than any pizza place is using. For a dumpster to be over flowing like that, you’d be taking well over several thousand pounds of dough. I’ve had to throw out 200 lbs of dough a few times over the years due to problems. It’s barely a drop in the bucket.
