Food Waste and Beer

Donna McArdle talks about a new pay-what-you-want supermarket which aims to reduce food waste in the UK, plus Malcolm Cruickshank tells Clare English about home brewing.

Would you pay for food that is already destined for landfill? Donna McArdle from The Real Junk Food project talks to Clare English about a new pay as you feel supermarket that aims to reduce food waste in the UK. Also, the trees and hedgerows are full of fruit at this time of year and it's all free. Clare goes foraging for apples and Chef John Quigley from Red Onion rustles up an autumnal slaw. As Scotland holds its first ever beer awards, Scottish Craft Brewers Association president Malcolm Cruickshank tells us about the rise of popularity in home brewing and how for him this is not a hobby, it's very much an art form.
