We produce enough food in the world to feed everyone, but one in nine people doesn’t have enough to eat.

Almost half of all fruit and vegetables produced are wasted.

Throwing away one burger wastes the same amount of water as a 90-minute shower.

In Australia, enough food to fill 9000 Olympic pools ends up as landfill, and we waste $3800 worth of groceries per household each year by throwing them in the bin. In fact, 35% of the average household bin is food waste.

It’s incredible just how much food goes to waste, but there are so many simple (and delicious) ways we can stop our food from ending up in landfill. All around the world, there’s a new generation of food waste warriors just like you who are fighting to keep their food on plates, in tummies, and out of the bin!

In this book are recipes, activities, ideas and inspiration to help you appreciate the many wonders of food. You’ll learn to experience it in fun and exciting ways, where it comes from, how it’s grown, how to buy and care for it, ways to prepare it, and best of all, all the ways you can share it with your family and friends! Not only that, you’ll learn some funky food facts and become a total whiz in the kitchen - whipping up meals to wow your family and friends. You might even eat some things you never thought about trying before!
