JUST EAT IT

Earlier today I was watching a John Oliver video on Food Waste in America, which was really interesting and it’s insane how much food is wasted in the States… Canada wastes a lot (31 Billion a year), and we do have a smaller population, but in the US its over 100 Billion a year… Another sad fact from the video is that there are more people living in hunger in the States then there are people in Canada…

Anyhow, in the John Oliver video there were a few clips from a documentary called “Just Eat It” (http://www.foodwastemovie.com/ ) and so I looked into it, and I haven’t watched the film yet but the website has a bunch of information about the documentary and how it was made, and of course why it was made, “We all love food. As a society, we devour countless cooking shows, culinary magazines and foodie blogs. So how could we possibly be throwing nearly 50% of it in the trash?”
