Manufacturers will fight this idea because it cannibalizes full price sales and hurts their brand reputation. They take back expired products and destroy them, or give an allowance for the store to do so and make them prove it. They don't give expired products to charity because it lowers sales. They don't ship the product to China or India for fear that it will come back.

WalMart donates their expired products to food pantries around the country. Our church distributes several bags of groceries to over 300 families a week. Thank you, WalMart and other grocery chains that do the same.
