    For good reason. While you might (probably, almost certainly,) are good with food safety; a lot of people are not.

    They have to legislate/regulate for the worst.

      I understand this, but given the article here I was thinking if they can pass a law that opens liability on past due timings they could also pass a law on free food donations.

      Sure someone somewhere will do something evil but on balance most people just want to help.

      To the person suggesting giving eggs to a friend I do do this, I’ve found a lot of other ways to help people, my eggs never go to waste, I just wish I could also share with the local food bank.

        If they take fresh/baked goods, egg bread and egg noodles are a good way to get nutrients into bellies without being super difficult to do. The threat profile on such things is also totally different so they are allowed on a lot of places where raw foods wouldn’t be

        Also a great use of eggs that are “maybe borderline” rather than tossing them :)
