Food waste is a big deal. While the numbers vary depending on your source, it’s estimated that the average American throws away anywhere between 200 and 400 pounds of food a year.
That might not seem like a big deal because that averages about 0.82 pounds of waste a day — about 2.5 apples or a little less than one russet potato.
