Food Rethink – Don’t Throw It, Cook It!

Our key food waste reduction programme encourages people to rethink what they throw away. We teach practical ways to use leftovers, rescue ingredients that are close to their use-by date and turn surplus food into delicious meals instead of sending it to landfill.

Our message is simple: don’t throw good food away – rethink it, cook it and enjoy it! By reducing food waste, we can help households save money while also reducing the environmental impact of food going to landfill.
