Fighting food waste

Description

The rich world has a food waste problem and it’s cooking the planet. But this is one battle we can win, says Marta Zaraska  I OFTEN feel guilty in the kitchen. The problem isn’t my cooking; I live in France and pride myself on my culinary skills. The cause of my guilt is the amount of food I keep throwing away. A pile  of leftover pasta, the uneaten salmon from my daughter’s plate, some expired tofu discovered at the back of the fridge – in it all goes. It sits there in a  heap on top of the plastic packaging in which most of the food came wrapped.
