Does The UK Waste Too Much Food?

By Leah Booker

Recent news reports have shown that as much as half of the world's food ends up in the bin. It's shocking but true!

The Institution of Mechanical Engineers claim that most products of wood ware wasted because of strict sell-by dates, supermarket offers and fussy customers. This report also says that up to a third of vegetables in the UK did not get sold because of the way they look!

Poor farming conditions and poor storage is mainly to blame for food going to waste as well!
