Food waste(浪费) is a big, worldwide problem. According to the United Nations, people threw away (丢弃) about 930,000,000 tons of food in 2019. The study showed most food waste (about 61%) was at home. Restaurants wasted about 26% of the food. Stores threw away about13%.

Waste is everywhere from field to the dinner table. Farmers throw away crops. The UN finds out that 14% of food does not get to stores. People want to buy only nice fruit and vegetables. But not all fruit and vegetables look nice. People buy too much food, too. They do not eat it all and then throw it away.

People may think rich (富裕的) countries probably waste more food than poor countries. But it is not true. In fact, people in poor countries also threw away much food.

The number of food waste in 2019 is big, but the reports this year show that people threw away two times more food in 2020. Also, hundreds of millions of people are still hungry, so why is food waste such a problem? It's time for countries to study food waste carefully to work out the problem.
