Environmental Responsibility Approximately 80 billion pounds of food is discarded in U.S. landfills each year, with a significant cost to the environment, economy and livelihoods of many Americans. Today the food industry – from manufacturers to retailers and foodservice operators – are better equipped than ever to combat this challenge. Accurate food usage and waste measurements and ambitious waste-reduction goals make battling the food waste crisis an achievable goal. We at Contessa Premium Foods are committed to doing our part by ensuring our correctly proportioned meals help to reduce food waste.
