Brits waste nearly £30 a month by binning over a kilogram of uneaten food, according to new research.
A study, commissioned by Boursin found that bread, bananas, and milk to be the most commonly thrown away foodstuffs from the nation's kitchens. Potatoes, eggs, and bags of salad leaves were also among the top discarded items.
Of 2,000 adults polled, a staggering 81 percent have admitted to throwing away uneaten items at least once a week, while 37 per cent regularly forget about foods until they expire. Findings also found 21 per cent, or one in five struggle to use up all the contents from the likes of multi-packs.
