So you know, if you have taken a perishable item from a cooler in a grocery store and later decide that you don't want it, the store has to throw it away.
I've worked in a lot of grocery stores in multiple states for over a decade and this has never been true in my experience. Staff puts their hand on it, if its cold it goes back in the cooler, if it's warm it gets tossed. It is not a definite garbage item despite the lingering urban myth. If it is true its a store policy at one company, and it must be regional because no major national chain does this.
I work at a grocery store now and what you say is still true.
Items are only thrown out if they've been removed from the store before returning.
Why I always put it back.
