Back to School, Back to Saving: 90% of Parents in Canada Say School Lunches Return Home Not Fully Eaten Each Week

A recent survey by Too Good To Go and Léger analyzed school lunch food waste in Canada. The study reveals that 90% of parents observe uneaten portions in their children's lunches weekly. About 54% of these leftovers, primarily fruits and vegetables, are discarded. This is significant considering the average family spends $312 monthly on school lunches and snacks.

Food waste is a concern for many, with 65% of parents acknowledging its negative environmental impact. The survey suggests involving children in lunch preparation to reduce waste. Parents report less wasted food when children help pack their lunches.

Too Good To Go offers various strategies to tackle this issue, such as including non-perishable items and using smaller portions. The company encourages families to use its app to save surplus food from local businesses.
