I noticed the removal of 'Best Before' tactic a couple of years ago and thought it was sensible. I hadn't realised the WEF were involved but, at that time, I wasn't even aware of the dangerous and devious WEF mob! This info puts a different light on the avoidance of food waste, which I've always criticised.
Can you believe it? Pfizer has agreed with the CDC/FDA to investigate (IN HOUSE) the suggestion that their Vax causes Myocarditis - over a 5 year period???
Unbelievably, to be undertaken by the SAME UNSCRUPULOUS PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING THE POISONS! I doubt if they'll find a connection????
Most VAXXED victims will die before completion of this ridiculous, unrealistic, LONG-TERM 'investigation' into Post Vax MYOCARDITIS!
What a joke the FDA & CDC are, as they're probably incentivised by Big Pharma?
REINSTATE LIABILITY for DEADLY VAX MAKERS and this carnage will cease overnight. Hopefully taking Pfizer and the other conspirators into a speedy BANKRUPTCY. It's just COMMON SENSE!
Pfuck PayPal for failing to get Adolf Schwab's (WEF) agreement to apply $2500 fines for any Customer daring to denigrate Covid tactics, mentioning 'DEATH BY VAX' or even suggesting trying safer, proven alternative pre-existing medicines like IVERMECTIN!

Excellent and informative article as always. Btw, check definitions of 'proscribed' vs 'prescribed'. I think you meant 'prescribed'. To proscribe is basically to prohibit.
Also, 'insinuated' implies something a bit underhand. I think you meant something closer to 'implying' or 'suggesting'.
It's bizarre that a NGO in the US has such clout to change a major plank of retail food policy in the UK. I hope ordinary shoppers will complain, loudly and effectively.
Apparently it now means to 'exile' or 'put to death' specifically, which is weird given the word's origins and Latin meanings. I suppose with re-wording ('they proscribed the best before dates') I could retain it, but I was absolutely confident it meant 'to publish' as a demand, as opposed to prescribe, a strong recommendation but without the force of law or compulsion.
The examples I had in mind were 'the doctor proscribed bed rest' (as in, the doctor is ordering they are kept in bed, not merely a suggestion), 'the government proscribed it into law'. Either I'm 5 centuries out of date, or someone keeps changing word definitions.
"Also, 'insinuated' implies something a bit underhand. I think you meant something closer to 'implying' or 'suggesting'."
In this case insinuation was correct because he never said any of those words explicitly or even implicitly. In-fact, we were in that area between the front doors and main store where compost was on sale, and he very subtly gestured to it (the slightest of neck tilts) during that part about the non-edible food. I don't think he was allowed or able to say those things, given he was a store manager, so it seems he had to be underhanded in suggesting it.
The feed for farm animals was a two-parter, so the store was more northern, and thus in a somewhat more rural area (read: closer to farms). He said non-edible food could have 'other purposes' (slight neck tilt to compost). Compost is one purpose, singular, so I wondered what the others were.
After doing online research I found food with visual defects were given as feed to animals, although this was food prior to delivery to stores. It turns out some animals have a better stomach for specific foods, and they're more than capable of eating food we're not (pigs are one example). In-fact, the feed some animals get (at least in other countries) is so bad, that stale food would be an *improvement*.
The wonky vegetables you see on sale in Morrisons is actually those visually imperfect vegetables that would have normally been turned into animal feed, and since Morrisons have done it, it has been successful. I notice no other store has adopted anything similarly.
I'll write a correction for proscribed. I am mildly annoyed the word no longer means what it used to mean, but I digress. Thank you for the correction.
The problem is removing the dates will not automatically give them the skills. As the article tried to highlight, historically you had an opposite problem; stores kept food that have clearly expired. If you go to any non-major British corner stores that sell... "fresh" food, you will know what I mean about the brown bananas, moldy lettuce and the like.
In-fact, even from major stores I often get 'in-date' foods like vegetables that are clearly browning with mold or wet and slimy from rot. Prepared salads expire notoriously quick.
"In Finland it is now routine to place less 30% or less 50% stickers onto products as they approach their end of life. Some larger shops also offer a doubling of the less 30% discount after 9pm and those with limited budgets make good use of these programs"
The UK have done this for a while, and it is called "reduce to clear". However it is classify only done on the same day as the 'best before'.
Even with this, however, the reduce to clear produce is often wilting or moldy, low quality materials, or large quantities of the same product (for example, piles of onions). The type of food waste stores throw out include that produced by in-store restaurants and products which they're not allowed to mark for reduce to clear.
"Food safety inspectors visit the food banks and complain if they are distributing food that is past the date even though it only arrives there the day after"
I think people should be permitted to sign waivers, but solely in the context of food banks, saying they're made aware of the risk that the food is past either sell-by-date or use-by and that they accept the risk. When I say food banks, however, I mean 'on the day' soup kitchens.
I do not think unprepared food should be given out, however, because determining the quality requires experience, and a lot of people aren't the smartest. If it has been examined and then prepared, then it should be fine.
That said, I found tinned foods that were bad quality and were well within dates. The inner can material had corroded and the entire food had a metallic taste.
This sounds like a problem, as stale bread would be fine for animals. When I referred to lower quality animal feed, I was referring to animals being fed things like *cardboard* or their own dead, food with raw sewage in and the like (a serious problem in former eastern bloc countries).
I wouldn't mind expired food being given to animals so long as it wasn't toxic or harmful to them. Animals can eat foods we can't. You'll never see me survive on hay.

I appreciate the feedback on the spelling.
I must be living in a different timeline. For me proscribe means 'to publish'. Ironically, the etymology of the word pre-fifthteen century is:
"early 15c., proscriben, "write before or in front, prefix," from Latin proscribere "publish in writing" (literally "write in front of")"
