Nearly 59 million tonnes of food waste are generated across the EU every year. The solution already exists in millions of European homes. The Frozen in Focus report from Nomad Foods shows that frozen food consistently outperforms fresh when it comes to household waste: 🌍 European households throw away fresh fruit an average of 24 times a year — compared to 22 times for frozen 🌍 Fresh vegetables are discarded 16 times a year on average — compared to just 13 times for frozen equivalents 🌍 Insufficient refrigeration globally causes the loss or waste of 526 million tonnes of food annually Reducing food waste is one of the fastest and most cost-effective ways to cut the environmental footprint of the food system — without asking consumers to change what they eat. Frozen food delivers that benefit in practice, at scale, every day. Read the full #FrozenInFocus report here: https://lnkd.in/eqpB9aRw
