Why are Americans wasting so much food?

On the next Your Call, we'll speak with Jonathan Bloom, author of American Wasteland: How America Throws Away Nearly Half of its Food (And What We Can Do About It). Every day, Americans waste enough food to fill the Rose Bowl--while one in seven Americans go hungry. He says current rates of waste and population growth can't coexist for much longer. It's already turning into a serious environmental hazard, so what can we do about it? It's Your Call with Sandip Roy and you.
