Did you know that of the 7.6 million tonnes of food we waste in Australia every year around 70% of that is edible? 7.6 million tonnes, it equates to about 312kg of food wastage per person. I mean wow, but we’ve all been there, it’s the end of the week, tomorrow is bin day and you’ve got a fridge full of food you meant to use. But one thing led to another and it would be so much easier to order Uber Eats that have to deal with it. Can you relate?
