REFLECTION QUESTION
Food Weekly Meal Planning

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?

Arya Vega 4/13/2020 12:09 PM

It is really surprising because all of the food all of us waste could be going to people who need it . The money we waste could be going to people that need it as well.
