A recent survey found that 80 percent of U.S. restaurant customers were concerned by the amount of food being tossed at restaurants and cafeterias. But shouldn’t it be 100 percent?
Either way, it’s nice to know that Unilever, who commissioned the study, has launched the United Against Waste campaign to get restaurateurs…united against waste.
Once restaurateurs sign up for the initiative, they receive decals to put on their doors and information to help them trim their waste. They can also find plenty of tips online, a forum for sharing best practices, and a chance to request a one-on-one consultation.
And in due time, the United Against Waste site will include a list of participating restaurants that have committed to reducing their food waste. Let’s hope it’s a long list.
