Interesting Fact

Well, most of you probably remember the #NoFoodWaste challenge we did together in June. You all shared nearly 500 tips, thousands learned from you, and the campaign (through our incredible partners) reached over 1M people! Not only did we individually do our part to chip away at the $218B food waste problem, but we brought more of our friends and family into the dialogue about a better food system.
