Food waste is something a great many of us are guilty of every day. From the old cucumber lingering in the back of the fridge, to that chicken wing that proved to be a bridge too far, food gets wasted on a large scale.

This infographic uses data from to show the five sub-sectors responsible for the most waste along the grocery supply chain. Of the total 1.7 million tonnes thrown away in 2015, meat, poultry and fish accounted for a 31 percent share. While a lot of the waste in this sub-sector is unavoidable, Wrap estimates that 30 percent of it could be avoided.
