Thats one way of stopping waste
I wonder how many will put it down their bog?
and flush it all away.

It might make people think twice about how much food they throw away. I can't imagine how much stuffs been thrown away over Christmas.

I'm waiting for councils in the UK to do this. I know in my city alone around 50-60% of households don't bother with food waste recycling. With councils facing fines each year if they don't reach recycling targets I'm surprised we haven't yet got to a point of seeing fines like this here.

The idea behind this is good. Although it does come across very much as a bullying tactic.
