TASTE THE WASTE Thursday, 13 October - 6:30pm at the Goethe Institute Brussels CINE-ONU presents the BELGIAN PREMIERE of the new eye-opening documentary Taste the Waste. The film reveals the shocking truth about global food waste.

About 10% of household waste is still-edible food: every second head of lettuce, every other potato--ends up in the bin.

The film will be followed by a Q&A with Valentin Thurn (Director) Roger Waite (Spokesperson for Agriculture & Rural Development, European Commission) Christine Van Nieuwenhuyse (Director of the World Food Programme in Brussels) Michael Hansmann (Brot für die Welt) The film will be screened in English and has a runtime of 90 minutes.
