Yeah, I worked grocery for a couple years and we were instructed to do that, but we were also constantly understaffed and discouraged from taking the time to do so, so it often was only done on products whose sell by dates were within a couple months of receiving (dressings and the like).
I vividly recall discovering one night that my coworkers hadn't been doing this for our coffee section, and my acting manager was a tad passive-aggressive when he found that I'd spent about 30 minutes stuffing over 100 bags of coffee beans into boxes so it could be tossed (or given to a discount store or whatever). Some of the bags were 5 years out of date.
This has led to me checking the dates of every perishable I pick up at the store.
Yeah, there's a few subs that I miss — particularly the ones for my city and my state — but r/twobestfriendsplay is top of the list. It was by far the sub that I most enjoyed interacting with since I joined years ago. Lots of power users who I'd immediately recognize by pfp.
The actual group that it's named after broke up a decade ago — they've been disbanded longer than they were a thing — but it was still loosely connected to a couple of the guys' ongoing careers, particularly two of them who host a podcast and stream separately. More importantly, it was a hub for discussion on games, movies, shows, comics, whatever, niche or popular, even if the relevance to the group was tenuous; the mods tried to block some topics but lost the battle on vtubers after the guys had Mori Calliope on the podcast, lol. I imagine it's even more lifted now that one of them streams with several vtubers.
tl;dr yeah I really miss some niche communities I'd been subbed to for years.
