We all waste food, you and me, every day, millions of tons of it. In China, food wasted in restaurants every year is enough to feed 200 million people. And the amount of food wasted by Chinese consumers is increasing fast. So our nation is being encouraged to stop wasting food.
So what should Chinese consumers do to prevent food waste?
Keep a kitchen diary
All of us should keep a kitchen diary, and we can know that how much food we waste at home. The first thing for us to do is to stop throwing away food that we can still eat. We should eat everything we buy and if we cannot, we should buy less.
Buy only what we need
We should ask for smaller portions in stores. We should also check how much food we have before buying more. We shouldn't bring much food we don't need home even if large posters ask us to do so.
Develop the habit of packing food
Chinese consumers are generous and friendly. In restaurants, often too much food is ordered and served. So when ordering out, we are supposed to exclude the food in the order if we don't plan to eat it.And order smaller servings in restaurants and take home what we cannot finish.
Don't put it off! Let's stop food waste today!

Peter was a carpenter（木匠）of our village．Once I asked him to make a dining table for my wife．He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows．When I arrived home that evening，Peter was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for his work．

"Yes．Hotter﹣and more expensive．Dining tables will be 20 more expensive on June 30th，won't they，Peter？"

I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it．Mother sat writing letters．Standing by her chair，looking at the ink bottle，pens，and white paper，I decided that the action of writing must be a most wonderful thing in the world．
Years later，during her final illness．Mother kept different things for my sister and brother．"But the desk，"she said again，"is for Elizabeth．"
I never saw her angry，and never saw her cry．I knew she loved me； she just did it．But as a young girl，I wanted to have heart﹣to﹣heart talks between mother and daughter．They never happened．And a gulfopened between us．I was"too emotional（易感动的）"．But she lived"on the surface （表面）"．
As years passed，I had my own family．I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family．I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive（原谅） me．
My hope turned to disappointment，then little interest and，finally，peace﹣it seemed that nothing happened．I couldn't be sure that the letter had even got to Mother．I only knew that I had written it，and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not．
But the present of her desk told me，as she'd never been able to，that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work．I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside﹣a photo of my father and a one﹣page letter，folded and refolded many times．It was my letter．
"In any way you chose，Mother，you always chose the act that speaks louder than words．"
