Two Miami Resto Owners Buy Dumpster-Picked Produce

So it turns out that side of "healthy" veggies you ordered over at the unknown restaurant you stopped by the other day, might in fact have been large handful of dumpster gunk. Local10 hung around the Miami produce center long enough to discover a dude who picks up loads of produce from none other than the apparently profitable neighborhood dumpster and then proceeds to sell them. Scariest part is the two Miami restaurant owners (Suvi Thai and Sushi; and Mabel's Cafeteria, just sayin') who bought the stuff, caught on camera red-handed, suspiciously having absolutely no clue where their merchandise comes from. Here's to hoping this isn't a new trend.
