About 40% of all the food produced in America is tossed out every year writes Forbes. This, according to a study published by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
Our throwaways are part of a total 150 trillion calories of food waste a year, or, $43 billion squandered annually. Along with overproduction or surplus and unwanted food scraps, spoilage is a key problem in food waste. Forbes shares produce that lasts the longest.
