Yeah.

Anyway, we had this group of influencers at Episode 100, which was really great.

And the very first person I spoke to was Emma, who's doing a PhD on food waste.

And she said, oh, my goodness, you want to talk about fridges.

Ah, yes.

Whole PhD on fridges.

And so thank you so much, Emma.

If anyone wants to check out Emma's work, it's foodwastestories.com is the website.

So if you want to read more, head on over there.

But seeing as it has been nearly 100 episodes since we did anything on food waste.

Yeah, it's pretty bad.

It was episode nine that we last talked about cucumbers.

I mean, we always talk about food waste, but we haven't done a dedicated trash talk since episode nine.

It's time probably for us to do a bit of an update on the stats.

So as always, thank you so much to RAP for producing these figures.

They do amazing work on food waste.

And they've done some reports since we last talked about this.

25 to 30 percent of food produced is lost or wasted, which works out 1.3 billion tons a year.

And if you took all that land that's being used to produce that waste, it would be the second largest country after Russia.

So it'd be bigger than China.
