Les études menées dans différents pays sont unanimes : nos poubelles regorgent de victuailles. “Au niveau mondial, 1/4 de la nourriture produite est jetée sans avoir été consommée” (Observatoire belge de la consommation durable). Championne européenne du gaspillage alimentaire, la Grande-Bretagne jette 6,700,000 (tonnes) de nourriture par an = 30 à 40% des denrées achetées ou cultivées. Aux USA, ce chiffre atteint entre 40 et 50%.
