More than $3 billion worth of food waste is filling up New Zealander’s bins every year. 

Rabobank-KiwiHarvest's survey estimates household's waste 12.2% of groceries yearly, a slight decrease from last year's 13.4%. 

Gen Z remain the most wasteful age group. 

KiwiHarvest Food Rescue charity founder Deborah Manning told Tim Dower that one of the problems is consumers demand to see a high quantity of food at stores. 

She says people want to see full shelves of bread at every hour of the day.
