  1. Nice gesture. My only complaint is that the Publix in my neighborhood has raised prices 10-30% and more in some instances. Bananas are now seventy cent a pound.

  2. Wow! As soon as I saw we were churning crops into the ground and dumping milk out I said why didnt we do this? Why doesnt the government buy this and donate it to food banks across the country!?

  3. Thank u Publix!!! I have been waiting and hoping someone would step up. I dont have u in my area but If i could i would buy groceries from u! GOD Bless u!

  4. It's about F'ing time some one stepped-up to the plate and bought this food marked for destruction by farmers who receive $BILLIONS$ in subsides from the federal government.

  5. Pubic stores are the lamest stores around everything is overpriced and 80% or the products suck you have very little choices to make on merchandise that's why they getting rid of the leftover food on the shelves and throw it away at the food bank

  6. Well are farmers here are not planting.. They say that will cost them more money to plant than what they will sell so I don't blame them

  7. I bought two FAMILY SIZE Lucky Charms when this started. I ran out of Milk two weeks ago.
    I NEED THIS.
    THANK YOU!!!!!
