The department said the fine was the largest ever in a food safety case in the United States. As part of a plea agreement, both Family Dollar Stores and Dollar Tree must meet " robust" corporate reporting guidelines for the next three years.
Three years? Good God, make it ten. That is disgusting and dangerous. Three years is not enough time for a company to be making mistakes that large.
I just bought stuff from a family dollar 💀
How else do you think they keep it a dollar💀
They don't. It's $1.25 now
F in the chat boys. Our dude's not long for the world.
Spread my ashes in Dollar Tree
This is the way...
Let them eat Flakes
What did they do wrong? They're just providing value by offering consumers free pets with their food!
That's a shit joke
It's a urine joke too
Urine over your head, kid
That's how you know when you've joined the peepee club

As John Oliver showed, they also tend to have one employee per shift per store, which makes things almost impossible to manage.
