I guess we never truly learned the lesson "waste not, want not".
From Good...
The FAO released a report, weighing the 660 lbs of food each one of us wastes annually in North America. It makes an important distinction between food loss and food waste. Food losses (the blue portion of the bar) tend to occur due to crumbling infrastructure, harvesting technology, or poorly designed packaging, whereas food waste (the red portion) results from restaurants and people like you and me throwing edible, slightly malformed fruits and vegetables into the trash.
