"In this fact-filled account, Smith surveys the food system from farm to fork, describing the many ways in which food is wasted, even though wasting food is in no one’s interest, while finding reasons for hope through the many community and corporate initiatives to reduce waste. The book contains some jaw-dropping statistics."

“A no-nonsense practical guide for solving one of the most pressing agricultural, environmental, and social problems of our time. Smith outlines the enormity of the problem—on farms, in our homes, in retail and food service—and warns that there is no silver bullet to making sure food is valued, preserved, and appreciated. All of us—policy makers, businesses, producers, and eaters—need to be part of the solution.”
