WHY all the fuss about misshapen fruit and veg (Echo, Aug 20)?
Food quality is not affected by the shape or size – ask anyone who grows their own!
It’s ridiculous that so much perfectly edible food is being thrown away.
Old fashioned greengrocers never checked size and shape before putting it in their shops and not much got wasted so what’s changed?
Time to get real and stop the waste. Fruit is fruit and veg is veg.
