With rising food prices and concerns about nutrition insecurity, household food waste reduction has never been more important. This session helps increase participants' understanding of the problem of food waste; explore common food literacy gaps that limit America's ability to use food efficiently; and determine what motivates people to make changes in waste reduction. Attendees will be offered evidence-based practical tips to help clients maximize food budgets and optimize food storage methods, along with strategies to help them reinvent commonly wasted food items and other tips that can empower clients to do more with less.
