Will Stoping U.S. Food Waste, Help Save the Planet?
Oct 01

There is a lot of work, energy and resources that are devoted to the production of the food in America and the waste equates to approximately $390 of waste, per person, in the U.S. Much of this waste is attributed to our general attitude of the lack of preference for any food that isn’t perfect in shape, color, texture or general appearance.
