REFLECTION QUESTIONFoodAn 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?
Marlene Charles 4/23/2020 10:37 AMYes, 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. :)
