    Why some households waste more and some less?

  • Original language description

    The topic of food waste is being discussed across all the EU countries. Research estimates that one-third of world food production is thrown away. The largest producers of food waste are consumers. Each year, 76 kg of food is wasted per person in the EU. Research dealing with this issue in the Czech Republic is only starting. The aim of this research was to find out about consumer shopping habits and how they perceive the issue of food waste? Whether the issue is a concern or actively addressed. The survey was conducted through in-depth interviews attended by 15 respondents. The findings show that the main reason for food waste is insufficient awareness and the confusion of the &quot;best before&quot; and &quot;use by&quot; dates.
