Food waste is a massive issue, it's estimated up to a third of all food is lost or wasted globally. A recent survey by social group Love Food Hate Waste found 42 percent of left overs aren't used, more than 26 percent of people admitted cooking too much leading to waste and more than 16 percent of people bought more food than they can use. Kate Fenwick from Love Food Hate Waste spoke to Lisa Owen.
Harriet Lamb, the CEO of WRAP (the climate action NGO behind Love Food Hate Waste and Food Waste Action Week), strikes a positive note about tackling food waste and how so many people from different sectors are trying to tackle this seemingly intractable challenge. In her chat with Ollie Lloyd, she talks about innovative businesses like Dizzie, which is creating reusable packaging for groceries, and Notpla, which is manufacturing single-use compostable sachets from seaweed (that the CEO will eat on stage to show how good they are)! They discuss the positive benefits of personally getting involved by volunteering with charities like The Felix Project and apps like Olio. There is so clearly a community of people who have the time and will to go the extra mile to make an impact and lead from the front. There is also a debate about how banana bread is better when made with blackened bananas and why moths are great as they encourage people to do visible mending, something Ollie has tried from time to time.

Experts are urging New Zealand to ditch the 'best before' labels on food packaging to reduce food waste issues. Food waste costs the nation $3.2 billion per year, with an estimated 100,000 tonnes of product tossed out. Love Food Hate Waste's Kate Fenwick says many people are confused between the 'best before' and 'use by' dates. "I've seen people throw away perfectly good packets of dry pasta, which literally can't go off, because it's got a 'best before' date on it."

Oh so practical and oh so fun tips on reducing your waste through food choices. You will learn from Anay Rios:1. First and foremost try to avoid packaging/wrapping more.2. Don't throw away them peels - awesome things you can reuse them for.3. Why ‘meat as a treat' is a great approach for the environment.4. Think about waste along the production line when buying foods - this may require some research/questioning. Companies eventually deliver what the market demands - more zero waste demanding customers means more zero waste supply.5. Best before date - why it's relevant in this conversation.6. Meal planning to avoid overconsumption and overeating (remember eating too much is also a form of waste).7. More on composting and a good use for those leftover coffee grains in the garden...

New Zealand households contribute between 224,000 and 504,160 tonnes of food waste to landfills each year. The Love Food Hate Waste Campaign is aiming to reduce landfill waste and encorage people to be responsible consumers. Jessica talks to Jenny Marshall, the manager of the project about how we can do our part to reduce food waste.
On this week’s episode we have special guest Tessa Clarke, co-founder of OLIO - the food sharing app which connects people to share surplus food. A third of the food we produce globally is thrown away, and households are responsible for over half of all food waste in the UK. The average family throws away £800 worth of food each year. That adds up to £15 billion. £15 billion that is going straight to landfill! Meanwhile 800 million people go to bed hungry every night. That is 1 in 9 people on the planet who are starving or malnourished. OLIO’s vision is for millions of hyper local food sharing networks all around the world. They believe the app can help create a world in which nothing of value goes to waste, and every single person has enough to eat – without destroying our planet in the process.The issue of food waste is one close to our hearts - and home. Even working in the industry that we do, we still find we have a problem with food waste at times. We’re intrigued by the way OLIO and others are using technology and other cool solutions to the problem.Listen to find out more about the food sharing revolution and how you can get involved!Download OLIO at https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/olio/id1008237086Follow OLIO at @olio_ex#sharemorewasteless
Each week the NZ Herald and Newstalk ZB's Cooking The Books podcast tackles a different money problem. Today, it's the various tactics to attack the food bill. Hosted by Frances Cook.If you want to cut back your spending, it makes sense to focus on the biggest core expenses. Food is undeniably one of those.

But the average New Zealand family wastes $500 of food in a year, and because that’s an average, some of us waste far more. So there are savings to be made if you know the storage tricks, the seasonal tactics, and how to work with your family dynamics. I talked to Jenny Marshall from Love Food Hate Waste for the latest Cooking the Books. We discussed the biggest items that blow out the budget, and ways to spend less without feeling deprived.
