1 in 5 bags of food shopping gets thrown away. That's not good for your pocket or the planet.
Wasted food costs the average family with children £680 every year and its bad for the environment too.
However we also know that cutting down on food waste can be a challenge, especially when you're pushed for time and your kids don't always want to eat what you've cooked for them. So to help you waste less, Surrey County Council's Love Food Surrey (external link) campaign provides helpful tips on how to plan your meals, perfect the right portions, store correctly and use up leftovers.
