The leftovers of food in Christmas represent a great inequality and therefore a serious problem. This has been denounced this year by the company AGR Food Marketing In collaboration with Anyone Without your daily ration and FESBAL (Federation of Food Banks) And how have they done it? The Valencian city woke up on Christmas Eve with a giant garbage bag, «the Christmas rubbish" which contained metaphorically the 7,7 billion tons de wasted food. How worrying is the problem?
Christmas leftovers in the spotlight
Leftovers. When we hear this word, the large amount of food left over in the meals y scenes Christmas. If the Christmas tradition of Spanish families is characterized by something, it is by the variety and multitude of different dishes arranged on the table on these important dates. Prawns, king prawns, crab, canapés, ham, loin, meat, eels, fish, stew, cheese, nougat, marzipan, shortbread, etc. Endless dishes that cannot be missing from the table. And sometimes you don't need that much. We do not calculate well how much we are going to eat and that is more reaction than it may seem at first glance.
And it is that the data thrown by the campaign are terrifying. we will throw away 1 out of every 5 kilos of food this Christmas while thousands of families find themselves in the position of turning to food banks for help. In addition, more and more people are in a vulnerable situation. In 2021 600.000 More people than in the previous year are at risk of social exclusion. The digitization of No one without their daily ration In collaboration with FESBALL helps thousands of people, but it is imperative joint action and social conscience. And you, What do you think? What should we do?
