We're all throwing away a scary amount of food
Finally - we are all throwing away a scary amount of food we could be eating – seven million tonnes of it every year according to Love Food Hate Waste. The average UK family bins £60 worth of food every month, which adds up to over £700 a year. This is not only a waste of our money – it's bad for the environment, too.
10% of greenhouse gases
According to the IPCC Report Food Waste alone also causes 10% of greenhouse gases responsible for global warming
We can all learn a few simple techniques, to reduce the amount of food we waste and still eat healthily.
Do remember
Do remember that you bought Premium Quality Meats in the first place - so why waste that provenance and quality
Sprinkled with Michelin Chefs
Now with our Leftovers Recipes - some sprinkled with recipes by Michelin Chefs - you can now enjoy the pleasure of a full Sunday Roast - and know there will be more meals to come - that are just as delicious as the first one - and at very little additional cost - and no waste
