Food waste could actually feed millions of people globally and also have an endless shelf life if we freeze dry it and turn it into powder. This way we can keep large quantities of food for a very long time rather than having to freeze it or pickle it which only last so long due to freezer burn and pickling doesn’t work for long periods of time which can turn to poison essentially if contaminated.
Three students from Lund University in Sweden have set up a business called Fopo (freeze dried food powder) buying expired fruit and vegetables and turning it into food powder to resell back into the F&B market.
