A staggering one third of all the food that we buy in the UK, we throw away. Not only is this hugely detrimental to the environment, but also, of course, to your pocket. Top chef James Martin cooks a summer pudding designed to use left over food. James is joined by sustainable development expert, not to mention mum and housewife, Neela Bettridge, who also imparts her top tips on reducing food wastage in the home and feeding fussy families.

Colossal amounts of food is wasted and thrown away in UK every day. Seven million slices of bread are discarded every day in the UK and a whopping two out of three households claim to throw away a loaf of bread in an average week. For years families have been choosing between a large loaf of bread (800g) and a smaller loaf (400g) during their weekly grocery shop. But have found themselves throwing away the last few slices of a large loaf, or craving a normal sized slice in a smaller bag. Now, there’s a perfect solution. The humble loaf of bread has been given a makeover with the launch of a new 600g range of loaves from Britain’s favourite family baker, Warburtons.
