According to a report by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Estimating the Cost of Food Waste to American Consumers, over one-third of food in the United States is never eaten. The report also estimates the annual cost of food waste for each U.S. consumer is $728. K-State Research and Extension northeast area specialist, Sharolyn Jackson, says planning your meals and shopping list, storing food properly, using leftovers creatively, and freezing food when appropriate are just a few ways to reduce food waste.
