Anyway, i digress...i have my thinking head on today...and after watching the main news today, i understand from what we are told, that the average British family throw away 600pds of food a year, edible just not required...
That brought back thoughts to last week at my daughters house....her partner is a farmer, and most weeks, pallet loads of food are driven to his farm with food for cattle...now i could understand this if it is out of date food or mouldy etc to supplement the cattles daily diet...but...no....pallets of chocolate gateaux, croissants, whole...yes whole boxes of weight watchers chocolate caramel cakes..hmmm yummy....and all within date...????....what on earth is going on...ok...our family benefit from yummy cakes and things...not me because i am on a diet...but how absolutely crazy....what about the homeless, old peoples homes, the poor...???...i just don't get it...and he is just 1 farmer, how much more food gets wasted in this way....
Well gotta go...couple arrived, got to help them now...
Enjoy the sun here in the UK everyone.... |
