Every year, 1.3 billion tonnes of edible food is thrown away. European households alone toss 27 million tonnes of food in the rubbish annually.

​

That’s why the fight against food waste begins in home kitchens.

​

    The initiative's key message is that we should enjoy good food – and respect it. This means wasting less.

 

Or as the team behind "Respect food" would say:  "Looks like good food. Feels like a good cause".
