🍏 #FoodWasteActionWeek is back! And so is buying loose. If we could choose all our fruit and veg loose, it could reduce food waste by 60,000 tonnes every year. That’s equal to 8.2 million shopping baskets! Next time you're at the supermarket, try buying your fruit and veg loose - it reduces the amount of food that ends up in the bin and means that you can choose exactly what you want. @lfhw_uk #foodwaste #zerowaste
