speaking of donating, way back in the day like 10 years ago I worked at panera bread. They donate all of the left over bread/pastry to the homeless. It turns out to be a couple of hundred dollars worth of stuff per day that they get to write off and they do it every single day.
The thing is though, it's all thrown away every night. Nobody comes to pick it up, but they "donate" it to the trash and get hundreds of thousands of tax write offs each year for each store. But it just goes in the trash. Pretty shady if you ask me.
