Dutch Food Waste Decline Slows

Dutch households are cutting food waste—but progress is slowing. Last year, each person wasted about 25 kilos (roughly €100) of food, down from 30 kilos in 2019. Bread, veggies, fruits, and potatoes are the biggest culprits, making up half of all food trash. Experts say the easy wins are done, and hitting the 2030 target of 18 kilos per person will require tougher habits. Practical tips like freezing bread, proper storage, and avoiding impulse buys can help. This effort supports the UN’s global goal to halve food waste by 2030, with a new campaign launching this month to drive change.
