left over but they have to throw it away at the end of the day and are not allowed to give it to the homeless or hungry. Why do you think there are homeless and hungry that hang around the back of restaurants around closing time. I have seen this and I live in small town. As far as those who make money it is better to throw the food away than give it to the hungry. Other than the health regulations I do not understand particularly when the food is still good and safe.
