MAKE SUPERMARKETS HAND OVER ALL UNSOLD FOOD TO CHARITIES.

Petition Details

More than 400 million meals' worth of edible food waste from UK shops and manufacturers is not being redistributed to those in need each year, a major Government-funded report has found.

People are needy and hungry, and supermarkets are burning food.

STOP THE WASTE!

Additional Information

THE UK WASTES THE MOST AMOUNT ON EDIBLE FOOD IN THE UK

Its true. Even the guardian and the telegraph are in agreement!
