About the Mighty Food Waste Mission
Did you know that Wales is one of the world's top recycling nations? This is fantastic, but a quarter of the average rubbish bin is still made up of food, costing the average family £83 per month.
Through The Mighty Food Waste Mission, pupils have learned how we can use up commonly wasted foods – such as potatoes, veggies and chicken – in quick and simple family meals, whilst recycling the items of food that can’t be eaten to help create renewable energy.
