World Food Day

Today is World Food Day.

A third of all food produced in the world is wasted.

Every household in Ireland wastes €700 worth of food per annum. The country bins one millions tonnes of food every year.

Forty four per cent of the food the United States produces is not eaten.

One billion people or one in seven of the world's population have not enough food to eat.
