"Three of the UK's largest supermarkets are investigating allegations of excessive food waste at their stores after an enterprising activist drew attention to the issue on social media. Waitrose, Lidl, and M&S have all confirmed they are following up on issues raised by the self-styled Food Waste Inspector, who began posting videos online in September 2025. The anonymous campaigner has uploaded several videos showing piles of in-date food deposited in waste bins outside of supermarkets, which he argues should be donated to food banks instead."
