- Over £1 billion worth of food is wasted by consumers in Scotland each year. That's an average of £430 per household.
- Scottish households throw away 566,000 tonnes of food every year.
- Two thirds of all food waste could have been eaten.
- Half of the good food thrown away is untouched, with one in seven items still in their packaging.
- At least £18 million worth of food thrown out is still in date.
- If we stopped wasting all this food, we could prevent the equivalent of 1.7 million tonnes of carbon dioxide each year in Scotland. This is the same as taking 1 in 4 cars off the road.
