Today I read an article called ‘What A Waste! 2017\2018 issue 1. It was about food waste and now I am going to explain the difference of food being wasted and food being spoiled.
Before I used to think food being wasted was more worse than food being spoiled but when I read this article I realised that I was wrong very wrong. The difference of spoiled food and wasted food is this.
The article said that wasted food is not a huge problem in developing countries a bigger problem is food getting spoiled. I remember an experience I had when I was in the Philippines. When I was looking at some food in a market I noticed that tons of them were getting spoiled, something that relates to this in the article is that it said that in India 30 to 40 percent of food gets spoiled before it reaches consumers. The actual difference is that wasted food is extremely (I am probably exaggerating a tiny bit) good food thrown away.
Spoiled food is food that has rotted\ got rotten\ that got spoiled, and that means that you cannot eat it anymore and you have to throw it away.
If you want to read it yourself the article is called ‘What A Waste! 2017\2018 issue 1’ that is just in case you want to read it yourself.
