| Wasting Your Sushi? You'll Pay for That |

Three years of rising food prices have added 75 million people to the ranks of the undernourished, totaling nearly one billion worldwide now. It's really no time to be wasting food. And one of New York's four-star Japanese restuarants, Hayashi Ya, agrees. The restaurant has just begun charging patrons an extra 3% for leaving food on their plates. The restaurant offers a $22.95 all-you-can-eat buffet, and management at the restaurant was tired of seeing perfectly good food go in the garbage (who throws sushi away??). Of course, no one Japanese restaurant is going to make a large dent in the disgusting amount of food that the U.S. wastes (27% of all food purchased in the U.S. is wasted), but it's a creative solution - for the restaurant to keep it's bottom line in check, as well as providing a small reminder to customers that there's no excuse for not cleaning their plates. Until more places like Boston and Los Angeles begin city-wide composting efforts, creative efforts from individual restaurants and businesses will be critical to cutting food waste. Via WCBS TV

It's true what our moms said...we are what we eat. In fact, it's truer than they thought. What I eat doesn't just affect me anymore, it affects all of us.
Unfortunately, the story of food can sometimes be complicated. But envirovores help each other out...which is why this blog will be bringing you news, tips, and information about food and the environment every step of the way.
