Cafeteria Waste and
What Can Be Done About It
It's lunchtime. You rush into the
school cafeteria. You've only got 20 minutes
to eat, but you also want time to relax with
your friends before afternoon classes. So you
quickly get some food, eat half of it, and then
the bell rings. What happens to the rest of the
it goes right
food on your tray? Chances are,
into the trash.
Does this sound familiar? Even if you don't
do this, you probably know someone who does.
In fact, in the United States, nearly a third of the
food served in school cafeterias goes into the
trash. All that wasted food is worth nearly one
billion US dollars every year.
Although food waste is a problem, many
schools are finding ways to decrease the
amount of food that gets thrown away. Some
have simply changed when lunch is served.
Students often rush to finish their food so that
they can go to recess. But when recess is before
lunch, students get the chance to burn off some
energy first. Then they're hungry and ready
to eat.
Do you have much time for lunch? If you're
like many students, you probably don't. Short
lunch breaks make many students rush. When
students don't have time to eat, they are more
likely to throw food away. Schools with longer
lunch hours have less waste.

When recess is
before lunch,
waste decreases
by as much as
30%.
Some schools are trying to involve
students more and get them to make decisions
about the food in their school. For example,
some US schools reduced cafeteria waste by
36 percent when students could choose what
food the cafeteria served. In many schools,
students can make suggestions about the
menu and then give their feedback later. It's
also helpful to let students serve themselves.
This way, they only take what they think
they'll eat. Getting students involved can
make a big difference.

Even with all these great ideas, there will
always be some food waste. However, all the
unwanted food doesn't have to go into the
landfill. Some charities collect unwanted
food from schools and use it to feed hungry
people. One UK school came up with a great
idea-Fruity Friday. Each Friday, students
chop up all the leftover fruit from the cafeteria
and use it to make special desserts for the
whole school. And of course, fruits and
vegetables can be composted, or left to break
down.
