Question

Almost every Chinese person knows the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work(谁知盘中餐，粒粒皆辛苦).” But many of us don’t get the real meaning: Don’t waste food. A CCTV program reported that the food Chinese people waste every year is enough to feed 200 million(百万) people for a year.

Do we have too much food? Of course not. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2010. Six million children die of hunger every year.

What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food? Here are some tips:

1． Do not order too much in a restaurant. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.

2． Don’t be too picky(挑剔的) about food. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it.

3． Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.
