Maybe not the best name. Second harvest is also a term for eating shit!
Comment on Grocery stores should have food banks
Pieisawesome@lemmy.world 9 months agoSecond 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

Expired food? There might be laws against stuff like that.

I am not a lawyer, yadda yadda, but best before dates are only the manufacturer saying “this will taste like advertised up until this date”. It’s still perfectly fine to eat, usually for a good while. So I think you’d be fine if you just sufficiently made people aware that the best by date has passed, and that they should use common sense before consuming.
It’s probably a different story for things with an actual expiration date
