Food waste has traditionally been approached from the perspective of economics and ecological damage. This book adds an underexplored dimension, religious beliefs, ethics and cultural practices and their influence on consumer behaviour. From a detailed study of 1000 households, this book analyses consumer behaviour across the acts of planning, shopping, storing, preparing and, finally, consuming food. In this way, readers are provided with a linear and comprehensible path through the process of food waste generation, and an exploration of the situations which lead to food waste, all with the added lens of the religious and cultural practices highlighted in the survey responses. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, including management and religious studies, the book will be of great interest to students and scholars of food waste, sustainable management and consumer behaviour.
