  • Did you know Americans waste nearly 40 million tons more food than any other country? 🚮 Much of this comes down to consumers opting for the shiniest, most flawless produce, leaving perfectly nutritious options behind to be thrown away. So, how do we address this issue? 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬. At FirstWave powered by SinnovaTek, we’ve developed innovative processes and technologies to transform imperfect produce into nutrient-rich products like purees, smoothies, and soups. 🫐🥤 Our microwave processing systems help create shelf-stable food products that maintain optimal flavor, color, and nutrition without exposing it to high thermal temperatures that can degrade quality. This means that we’re able to take produce and convert it to food products that can 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫, keeping them fresh and nutritious for extended periods. By doing so, we're maximizing the use of available produce and reducing waste in the long run. 👏 Minimizing food waste is at the heart of our mission to provide naturally nutritious food for everyone. Next time you're in the grocery store, consider picking up those quirky or pouched fruits and veggies!  Learn more about how we're working to reduce food waste at https://lnkd.in/d-NP8nD. ♻️ Source:https://lnkd.in/gwjfYmW
