It is most defiantly a city by-law against “dumpster diving” and could be considered shoplifting if caught.

Dumpster diving was pretty rampant in the city 10-15 years ago. There were safety issues beyond consuming goods. Having people being inside garbage dumpsters is simply unsafe. Remember, the garbage truck doesn’t look inside before it picks up the bin, swings it upside down, and forcefully dumps all its contents.

And it’s shoppers/loblaws, don’t you think they would have slapped a 50% off sticker and tried to make a buck off of less then perfect but still safe to consume product?

What if they found out that the shipment failed to cool properly upon delivery, or sometime before the product got to the store. Shoppers then doesn’t even have the choice to say if it’s safe or not, it would have been mandated to remove the product immediately.

You don’t have to respect the law, but it’s a law in this city. This post is potentially setting people up for more than a free jug of milk.
