Every week，Wu Lin，a 19-year-old college student，will wait at a store selling food nearing its expiration date （保質(zhì)期） ，and return to school with a bag of snacks. "These products are usually sold at 30% to 50% off and many of them are from big brands. I'm really a big fan of them，" she said.
Wu is among a growing number of young Chinese who buy near-expired food.According to a report by iiMedia Research，China's near-expired food market went beyond 30 billion yuan in 2020 and 47.8 percent of the consumers were aged 26 to 35.
Unlike the traditional thought that buying such food is penny-pinching（吝嗇的） or embarrassing，more and more young people like Wu regard it as a way to help reduce food waste. "I don't care much about the date，as long as I can eat them before their expiration dates.It meets my needs while saving resources and protecting the environment，which is a good thing，" says Wu.
Physical stores （實體店） selling near-expired food have sprung up （突然興起） in cities across China.HotMaxx，a chain store that opened in 2020 in major Chinese cities，has increased to more than 200 in number across the country.Online shops selling such food are growing rapidly，too.On Taobao，around 2.1 million people buy near-expired food every year.
From a food safety standpoint（觀點），which may concern many consumers，experts believe that such products won't do any harm. "Near-expired food is safe and buying these products is a good practice to help prevent waste of resources，which should be encouraged，" says Zhou Yu，a professor of food nutrition （營養(yǎng)） and safety at Anhui Agricultural University.
