One Million Tubs of Yoghurt

This story on the BBC website is a more popular version of the information I presented on WRAP’s The Food We Waste Report.. This is part of the public relations effort in Britain to address food waste.

So one million tubs or bottles a day of yoghurt are thrown away unopened! Apparently this because more wealthy people aspire to the health and image benefits of youghurt while shopping, but don’t get to eat all they buy in the relatively short shelf life of the lightly preserved products they prefer.
