  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food
    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Does this surprise you? Where would you rather use this money?

    Yes, I am surprise the average is $1,500 a year.  I thought it would be more.  I would rather go shopping or invest the extra spending money. :)
