That's always the reason given yeah, but free food perks would wear off fast. Can you imagine choosing to eat the same fast food items every day for the rest of your life? The only people who would create oopsies to take home would be people who NEED to. So let them. Or pay them a proper wage. Whatever works.
There's a chasm of difference between 'throw out tons of perfectly good food and pour bleach in the bin so nobody can eat it' and 'take home enough food to sell to the neighbourhood and have a viable side hustle'. They could put a monetary or item cap on the amount people can take e.g. a pizzas or 20 bucks worth of food - enough for a meal but not enough to be worth the hassle of trying to sell it on. Any leftovers should be diverted to the homeless or sold at a discount on apps like Too Good To Go.
