Essay, Research Paper: Ones Trash Is Anothers Treasure

Everyone sees all the malnutrition children dying overseas because thy

cant afford to purchase food for themselves or their families. Everyone also

sees the people of America sending food and other relief items overseas to

aid them. But there is a flip side to that coin which anyone can see by

walking into one of Americas many restaurants. People can witness

Americans spending allot of money on food then throwing half of it away.

Most of the food that is wasted is for the most part good edible food.

As in the case of McDonalds the wasted food is untouched. Scott said in a

recent discussion in class "They make us throw away the sandwiches after

ten minutes because they're not fresh." Another girl in class mentioned that

people will buy an expensive plate and only eat half go what they pay for and

end up trashing the rest. Others say "why throw away the food lets take it

home" they don't realize that the Styrofoam box is trashed when they get

home. People really need to moderate what they order so they don't have to

take it all home or worse throw it away. After a busy night at the Japanese

restaurant Miyako you see first hand all the wasted food piled up in a fifty

five gallon trash bucket. If you also get the honor of washing the dishes you
get to shove platefuls of food down the drain

Why does everyone waste so much food? Well in Scotts case at

McDonalds most of the people don't want to wait that extra minute and a

half therefore they have to make more food than the amount of people that

come through the restaurant. sometimes people order something they don't

like and end up wasting it but even that adds up to a lot of wasted food. The

other reason food is wasted is that people will only spend a lot if they get a lot

but for the most part they get a lot but don't eat a lot. on top of that probably

only about 40 percent of people take home their food the rest is wasted.

Everyone wasted food and don't even realize it, all those pizza crusts

and half eaten bowls of soup really add up quickly every single time anyone

throws away any food they should take just one minute to think of a starving

child in a third world country that would kill for what someone else calls

their trash.
