BS

Canada doesn’t produce avocados.

Stop selling it so high and people can afford to buy healthy food instead of a 5 dollar combo for dinner

Something to look at in this country.JohnTory Mark_Grimes j_maloney JustinTrudeau MaximeBernier CandiceBergenMP AndrewScheer CityNews TorontoStar '.,it says avoidable food waste in CANADA produces more than 22 MILLION TONNES of CLIMATE-CHANGING CARBON DIOXIDE emmissions'

So most of the waste is not at the consumer level but at the production level. I don’t feel so bad when I don’t compost anything now.

Fines should be levied at supermarkets if food is wasted, mark it down so many of us could eat better or donate it. Most times I bet your struggling employees would like some too.

Exactly who the fuck eats vegetables stop wasting time and plant more animals 😎

I don't see a single food on that picture that could even plausibly be produced in Canada. Meanwhile, my kid's lunch pail may be a culprit of the wastage.

China is trying to exert its ownership of the new post nation.
