Food waste is bad and it is getting worse as more people get greedy and take more food than they need, here are some reasons. kids have too much food in their lunch, Most people won’t buy food because of the look and some people buy and prepare too much food. About a third of all food that is produced is wasted including about 45% of all fruit and vegetables, 35% of fish and seafood, 30% of cereals, 20% of dairy products and 20% of meat.
Kids have too much food
Some kids feel sad so they eat loads and to give them something to do that eat and eat and then before they know it they start to gain to wait to much wait for there liking and feel embarrassed. My second reason is that want what their friends have even if they don't like it so they will come home with a lot of food that they have not had because they have too much food in there lunch. There is also Physical hunger is the body's signal that it needs energy and nutrients. Do not be afraid to let your kid feel either type of hunger once in a while. With growth spurts, kids experience greater hunger, too. It's important for kids to listen to their hunger.

People don't by food because it looks different
45% of all fruit and vegetables are wasted because of the look around 20 per cent of apples were being wasted I don't think to leave the farm because they weren’t at least 50% red in colour. all food can look so good and in shape so if you try growing
Carrots the chances are that some will be deformed also the chances are that you might get a discount so why not pay less for food ad help stop food waste
In the psychology of food waste, people are often misled by their surroundings. But we can rethink our choices. quoted by Rachel Jackson.
Buying and preparing too much food
Everybody has to of done this once where you have a family over for a bbq so you buy a lot of food even more than you think you need and you where write there was a lot of leftovers and you kept on say ing you’re going to have it the next night but you don't and it goes off and you have to throw it out so there is more food waste.
Or if you cant finish your dinner it will probably go into the bin. It is very difficult for people to manage their food waste, partly because it's almost impossible for supermarkets to get the sizing right."
Expiry dates
Food items usually have a best before or a use-by date. The best before is a guide until that date the product is fully marketable and should hold on to its quality. After the date, it can still be sold but it might not be in quite as good condition that was intended by the manufacturer. Usually, these are foods that don't change a lot, or products like milk, where you'll notice something is bad before it actually becomes unsafe to eat. Best-before dates are used to provide information about food quality. Most foods have these dates.
You can eat insects I know your probably thinking grows when Atchley your eating insects all ready for eg peanut butter, chocolate, juice and canned tomato that’s a lot of food full of insects
Here are three reasons we should eat insects
Adding insects to our food will help bring out new tastes and textures giving you a whole experience.
Meat production is a major cause of global warming and is unsustainable. Adding insects to diets worldwide will reduce the need for meat and help fight global warming.
Insects are nutritious and packed with protein with all of the essential amino acids. They are high in iron, calcium and B12. They are a great source of Omega 3 and are prebiotics nutrition for probiotics.
Also, a lot of insects can be eaten even thousands of different types of food sauces that were killing
And thinking of as a nuisance.
So, in conclusion, there are so many ways that we waste food and we even waste new food sources and these come back to one thing we need to make a change because About 150,000 tons of food is tossed out in US households each day, equivalent to about a third of the daily calories that each American eats. I think it,s It's hard to imagine anyone being openly against food waste.
