That’s how many brownies would be saved across the USA if everyone wasted just 10% less per person on Mondays from now till the end of Spring!

ATTENTION BROWNIE LOVERS!

Albi here. Did you know that this semester in Commons, we waste the most amount of food on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays? On Mondays we actually waste 13.5% more than Tuesdays! 

At Albi we LOVE brownies, and so we thought it’d be fun to translate waste into one of our favorite treats!

Now it’s easy to say that a brownie a day isn’t so bad. After all, they’re pretty small! And the average brownie really only weighs ~2.5 ounces…

But each of those delicious little cubes of goodness adds up over time! If we are all mindful about how much we waste on Mondays alone, we could seriously impact what ends up in the trash.

But let’s not stop there…imagine the difference if we focussed on wasting a little less on every single day.

Don’t forget to keep checking back to the website Albi - Eat Smart where we’ll be uploading new results each week and slicing and dicing the data both at Hartwick and across the US! 

Keep up the amazing work and remember to always eat smart!

Best,

Matt & Harry
