Kiwis throwing away less food in lockdown, study finds
Hi neighbours,
Kiwi households are throwing away less food in the Covid-19 lockdown, a University of Auckland survey reveals,
The number of people who claimed to rarely or never waste food rose by almost 20 per cent in lockdown to 80 per cent.
Respondents that claimed they never threw food away almost doubled.
Over 3000 respondents were asked in the Covid Kai Survey about how often they threw away food among other things.
Households with children wasted food more often, before and during lockdown, but were also more likely to decrease food waste during lockdown.
People who were confident in their cooking skills and planned meals ahead of time wasted the least.
Have you been throwing away less food in lockdown?
