Food wastage

According to the FAO, one third of the food produced for human consumption is thrown away. It represents 1,3 billion tons per year. In the EU alone, about 180 kilos of food is wasted per person per year.

When you waste even a small portion of your food , please think about those who do not have even one time meal; Please donate all extra Food items ( if it is safe to consume) in any function to any Orphanage, Beggars around Temples Etc.

See that the Food you Donate is not contaminated.

I agree. Sometimes it is hard not to waste food. For example if you buy too many fruits or vegetables and wait too long to cook all of them, those that have been sitting in the fridge spoil and have to be thrown out. This happens to me sometimes. I am a picky eater and I may see something in the market that appeals to me but when I get home I don't want to take the trouble to cook itso it stays in the fridge until it spoils. This happens to everyone I am sure. BUT, putting too much food on your plate & not eating it all, I believe, will bring you negative karma if you do it consistently. I consider nonchalantly throwing away good food to demonstrate a lack of concern and consideration for all those who would do anything for a few grains of rice. Human suffering should never be taken lightly.
