mom always said - clean your plate. as we head into the holiday season, many people are already thinking of what to put on the menu. elias: but here's some food for thought? you may be throwing away your money. and the problem appears to be in the kitchen. abc's chief business and economic correspondent rebecca jarvis breaks down - food waste. cript: nats "?chopping?" in this kitchen? what many restaurants may consider trash - is actually headed to the table. sot - przemek adolf / owner, saucy by nature "we were ending up with surplus ingredients.?" "saucy by nature" - a restaurant in brooklyn, new york - focuses on zero waste. that means when its catering business finishes a wedding or corporate event - the leftover ingredients go to the restaurant - instead of the landfill. sot - przemek adolf / owner, saucy by nature "we don't just have to be driven by money and profits." from restaurants - to your own refrigerator? americans are throwing out more than 130 billion pounds of food every year! sot - jeremy kranowitz / executive director sustainable america
5:13 am
"40% of the food that's grown is wasted along the trail from farm to fork." and it's not just food waste, but wasted money: 371 bucks per person spent on food you end up throwing out - multiply that for a family and we're talking thousands of dollars each year. (source: ivaluefood.com) what's worse? there are still many people who don't have enough. sot - jeremy kranowitz / executive director sustainable america "1 in 6 americans goes hungry, and so we have this very odd juxtaposition." at revive foods in san francisco? the focus is on food rescue. turning overripe or "ugly" fruit - that's still perfectly edible - into products like jam. sot - zoe wong / founder revive foods "it's not just a social problem, it's not just an environmental problem, it' s not just a economic problem, it's all of them" simple steps can help you limit or even eliminate your food waste: when you eat out - ask for smaller portions or share with friends. at home: take stock of what you have - before you go grocery shopping. and watch where you store things - keeping onions and potatoes together - shortens the shelf life on both. rebecca jarvis oncam
