À propos de cet audio
An extreme amount of work, thought and scrutiny goes into the production of food. Yet nearly half of the U.S. food supply — or 80 billion pounds — is wasted each year. A lot of this waste is the result of Mother Nature and production restrictions placed on growers by grocers, vendors and companies to have the picture-perfect tomato or right-size potato. This combined with consumers who overbuy at the grocery store have created a perfect storm of discarded food.
Episode Breakdown:
- Why are these standards of perfection placed on farmers in the first place?
- How are companies and other advocates looking at the whole production process — from farm to table — differently?
- How can perfectly good food be prevented from going to waste?
