Plan Ahead To Reduce Food Waste
Briefly

Nearly 40% of food is wasted from farm to landfill in the U.S., while one in eight Americans is food insecure. Reducing food waste can significantly impact budgets and the planet.
Before shopping, take inventory of your fridge and cupboards. Create a meal plan with items you already have, then buy only what you need.
To avoid spoilage, organize your fridge by creating an 'eat now' shelf for perishable foods and arrange items to keep perishables accessible.
The freezer can be an effective tool for reducing food waste, as fruits and vegetables are often frozen at peak freshness.
