Thanks for the observation, Tim.

I wasn't totally clear with that 17% loss: it points to the food we throw away as part of the food eaten, not including what is lost in supply chains and consumer waste.

And I do agree that it is hard to maximize food to the level of eggs, bones, or apple cores, but there is a purpose for everything: compost, soap, seeding.

As I say, hunger is not a matter of volume but distribution and efficency down the line.

Thanks for the observations, and for adding value to the conversatin Tim
