Wasted! The Story of Food Waste

Q&A Food Bank for Westchester President & CEO Leslie Gordon and Director, Operations and Food Sourcing Bob Silvia

Wasted! The Story of Food Waste aims to change the way people buy, cook, recycle, and eat food. Through the eyes of chef-heroes like Anthony Bourdain, Dan Barber, Massimo Bottura, and Danny Bowien, audiences will see how the world’s most influential chefs make the most of every kind of food, transforming what most people consider scraps into delectable dishes that create a more secure food system. Interviews with leading food activists expose the criminality of food waste and how it’s directly contributing to climate change, and show us how we can make small changes—all of them delicious—to solve one of the greatest problems of the 21st Century.
