Returning Food That Was Under the Bed

Question

I bought food from a store, and it was under my bed at night. I am not concerned about eating foods that have been under the bed in my home, but am I allowed to return it to the store?

Answer

Greetings,
It is forbidden. Since many are strict about not eating such food.
