Imagine caring so little about anything that they couldn’t even donate the canned goods or non perishable food like bag chips and sealed candy bars to the local food bank!! 🤨🤷🏻♂️
@@MrManflyThey didn't have to. It was their product. If they wanted to leave it to rot, that is their choice. People are so entitled these days. You don't deserve a dam thing. Nobody is entitled to anything.
@@uyfj9312yeah, but they left a literal biohazard, and plus, i bet that if they didn’t open it up, that store would give diseases and other types of sicknesses. It doesn’t matter if it’s their product, you don’t just leave food to rot and potentially get people sick.
We didn't know or understand why the food was still shelved. Before we went in two if the clean-up guys thought there was a dying body because of the horrible smell because it didn't smell like rotten food.
Fun Fact: The footage of the cleanup of the store is only partially been found and shown through a document called: Life after People. Meaning the rest of the footage is unavailable, making it lost media
I still don't see the point of leaving it to rot...the only reason I could think of is that they're so lazy they didn't want to spend like 10 mins giving it to charity
Yeah, I would take matters in my own hands if I were aware of situation. Like bruh, this is huge food waste and entire situation made me sick in stomach.
Assuming that they filed for chapter 7 bankruptcy the workers might not have been getting paid for being there. I ain’t doing work if I’m not getting paid
@jamesgoodwin6355 In that line of work, I've gone and cleaned out really bad messes (hoarder houses, squatter homes, etc) and have dealt with rotten food before when cleaning them out. Organic material rotting is the true smell of death.
To be fair. Depending on the circumstances..........the owners aren't allowed to touch the contents of their store, as it becomes the property of the city/state. They may have wanted to remove the contents but weren't allowed to.
My neighbor passed in march and the city has claimed his property because he hadno burial insurance. I was paying the power bill until May but couldnt afford it any longer since im still feeding his cats too. The fridge is still full now and there are holes in the floors and roof. The city has done nothing .the house is infested with rats and rodents that are moving thru the neighborhood now.
I heard of a story close to this. The bank refused to give the owners and extension, and were not allowed back so the owners closed the store with there own locks and left the banks to deal with it like the pricks the rich people are, but who knows whats really happened here need the other half of the story.
After filing for bankruptcy the court should have assigned a "conservator" who takes care of it. It doesn't matter if they put their own lock on it, he is allowed to have it opened up (though not broken but he could have just hired a lock pick) and done his duties. If the owners even gave a single thing away or sold it after bankruptcy they could be charged with a crime. This is 100% the government failing here
All I could think of was Nurgle during this entire description of the store. The food may have decayed, and it was clearly disgusting, but it served as a zone of life and prosperity to the animals inside the pestilent garden. And then it got cleaned up, and that was that.
I mean it got so bad that the air around the building was deemed unsafe to breathe, people couldn't run their air conditioning in the summer heat because it would pull toxic air from outside into their homes
This reminds me of that one case out of Montana where a trucker abandoned an entire trailer of frozen chicken and disengaged the reefer. You could smell it for miles.
Theres a US national brand, Foxtrot, that purchased a group called Dom’s Market and did something incredibly similar, was big news in Chicago earlier this summer. You should give it a read
There was accually a video on it about lost media because there was footage taken inside it from the people that went inside but they didn’t reveal most of them
I’ve been to mexia many times. My Grandparents live about 10 miles away from there. Fun fact: it’s not pronounced mex-ia, but rather muh-hay-uh. I still don’t know why.
It's the same reason I hate the fashion world sometimes. There are so many cases of businesses just throwing away/abandoning perfectly good products after the season is finished rather than donating them. Their reasoning, it's too much time and effort and they don't want to devalue their name brand.... By giving away products that weren't selling to begin with.
That’s so messed up. when i closed my bakery , i made sure to donate every single baked good i had left. ppl are starving out here and they just let all that food go to waste.
@@stevenserna910 ok first, you can be an American abroad. That would bring you here legally, but still be foreign. Second, if they dropped everything an jumped ship, they had a bolt hole escape plan that was not within the realm of American law. That literally means they came here with plans to make money until they were busted then ousted. Third, who the hell said anything about the company owners being hispanic?
Whats interesting is that they did record what was inside of the market, but only partial fragments remain available; in other words, the footage is lost media.
If they filed for bankruptcy I doubt they had any time to take care of the store and probably immediately fled the country for a reason. Could be that they had huge loans to pay
