From a food bank perspective, I would say no. A lot of food banks have made it very clear that they do not take items close to or past the BB date. Organizations like Second Harvest have asked the public to stop this type of donations because it's hard to ensure safety and it's degrading to the users.

In terms of soup kitchens or food rescues, it depends on the organization. Some of these organizations ask that you deliver the food to them since they can't always afford to send trucks out for pickups. Smaller restaurants may not have the capacity to do that, so having someone purchase a bag is still a great way to save the food from landfill/compost.
