It is insane how much gets thrown out, especially by restaurants and grocery stores. I wouldn't have expected the fruit, though! In the USA, the "sell by" and "use by" labeling system is confusing and leads to a lot of still perfectly good food being thrown out prematurely.

On the bright side, things like urban farming and food pickups are on the rise, here. Maybe, with programs like these, awareness, and technology, the system will become efficient.
