What happens when food waste becomes a business model? ๐ฅโป๏ธ
Copenhagen is finding creative ways to give surplus food a second life.
๐ฅ Ugly vegetables that donโt meet supermarket beauty standards can still make delicious meals.
๐ Surplus bread from supermarkets and cafeterias is being turned into pasta instead of going to waste.
๐ Surplus supermarkets sell food with damaged packaging, incorrect labels or approaching best-before dates, food thatโs still perfectly good to eat.
โก And food waste that canโt be eaten can even be turned into biogas and energy.
The bigger idea? Food waste isnโt always about food. Sometimes, itโs about the way we define value.
Maybe that oddly shaped carrot isnโt the problem. Maybe our idea of โperfectโ is. ๐ฑ
