With around 9.5 million tonnes of food wasted each year in the UK, HelloFresh have found that making your own sandwiches at home can greatly reduce your carbon footprint.
Mimi Morley, recipe development manager at HelloFresh, said: “Homemade sandwiches not only allow you to switch it up with flavours and fillings, and create your favourite sandwiches, but they also allow you to reduce your carbon footprint. Rather than opting for a meal-deal every day why not try recreating sandwiches at home. Not only does it help towards saving the planet, but it will also help you save money.”
