Food Consumption and Waste as a Social Issue – April 2019

In April 2019 Public Opinion Research Centre AV ČR examined the attitudes declared by the Czech public to the basic dimensions of the issue of food wastage. Respondents evaluated the urgency of this problem, estimated amount of food thrown away in the household and for what reason and they also state reasons for not throwing away food. In the next section, we focused on therespondents' habits associated with food, specifically where and how often they buy, how much they spend monthly on buying food, whether they use a shopping list or whether they are affected by special offers (e.g. 1+1, XXL packaging, half price).
