This is a false equivalence. We regularly “throw away” remains (by burying or incinerating them) that could have been donated to science or organs that could have been donated to patients in need. Eating discarded meat seems more morally equivalent to ensuring that grandma is an organ donor. It’s not as if discarded meat in a landfill or buried Grandma’s in a cemetery are contributing in any meaningful way back to the ecosystem.
