How much food do you waste?

The U.S. Department of Agriculture reports that Americans throw out over 11 billion pounds of fruit and vegetables every year. On average this equates to the average family of four tossing out an estimated $590 per year, just in meat, fruits, vegetables and grain products according to anthropologist Timothy W. Jones. 
 
Another study, "The Mystery of the Cabinet Castaway: Why We Buy Products We Never Use," focuses on consumers and shows that 12% of all food bought for home use is eventually discarded.
 
Brian Wansink, co-investigator on the cabinet castaway study, says much of the consumer food waste is by people who are buying for a specific recipe. They either purchase the wrong amounts, or they decide not to make the recipe, often because other needed ingredients aren't available. (-Janice Resnik, Goodcooking.com)
