I couple of years ago I met a freegan and even had some of the stuff she found - the most risky item was a dented, but otherwise fresh pineapple. Stores throw away so much still edible stuff that I find it hard to believe that shoplifting makes much of a difference. There seems to be not enough pressure to keep prices low, which doesn't bode well. On an unrelated note: I wonder how is this going to affect obesity levels?
