Organizations had a near expiry product. They said now let’s offer this to all our employees at a 40 percent discount. This is a lack of mindfulness. If you’re preparing a sweet, at your home, you offer that sweet first to your family. You want to offer the leftover to people who have worked on it people who have given the sweat and blood for that particular thing, so this would be inside.
