The Best Food Waste Apps To Make Eco-Friendly Living Easy
Eliminate food waste from your life 🌎
In our busy lives it's all too easy to forget about that bag of salad, half a loaf of bread or lovingly prepared Tupperware meal at the back of the fridge.
It's safe to say that wasting food on any level does not feel good, and it's not good for the planet or our bank accounts either. Around 70% of the UK's food waste is caused by household waste alone (we're looking at you, pint of unused milk in the fridge door) according to WRAP, and it costs the average UK family £700 a year!
But all is not lost. There are loads of ways you can reduce your food waste at home, whether it's learning what you can and can't freeze or how to store food properly, or downloading one of these handy food waste apps. So, keep reading for our selection of the very best food waste apps to help protect our planet and discover some fun new restaurants, recipes and ways of organising our lives (and fridges) along the way.
