Waste is an unwanted material that is no longer in use. It is also the act of spending or using something in a careless manner. Many times people use a lot of things in a careless manner thereby squandering and making useless those items.
For instance, people waste money, time, energy, and especially food.
Food waste is food that is lost, not eaten and discarded. At the household level, it usually occurs when there is food surplus, inadequate storage space, and improper storage.
However, it is possible to minimize food waste by knowing and buying exactly the quantity of food you need. Also, endeavor to eat whatever you buy, take only the amount of food that you can finish to avoid leftovers. Furthermore, endeavor to eat more of fresh foods and do not store food long enough to lose its freshness.
