Ugly food doesn't make it to the store, it becomes something else which has a longer shelf life.
Food past it's prime goes into the dumpster, without any chance of a discount or price reduction.
Source: The organic potatoes I tried to buy from ALDI which were very sprouted because it was the end of winter begining of sprint and the spuds wanted to grow into plants but the clerk's manager told me, "I can sell them to your for full price, or I have to throw them away."
Writing an email to ALDI corp yielded no response on this matter.
I am a gardener, I could have prevented food waste in this situation.
