How big of a problem is food waste in Ireland?

Tesco is to trial giving away expiring food to shoppers for free. The supermarket will give away some already discounted ‘yellow sticker’ items after 9:30pm in some of its UK stores. Tesco already donates expired food to charities and food banks, but says it is taking this step to try to meet its goal to halve food waste. Is this the right step to cut food waste? Is it something you would like to see brought in here? Guest host Adrian Kennedy is joined by listeners to discuss.
