Founded in 1981, Panera Bread was created while keeping in mind the goal of “a loaf of bread in every arm” (Price). To this day, they still live up to that standard.

Every night, the bakery workers pack up the unsold bagels, breads, and pastries for donation to local charities (Prince). In order to help a wide variety of causes in the cafe’s own community, they have a link on their website for a charity to apply for donations (“In the Community”).

("Wasted" Documentary) I will take you on the journey to see the behavior, habits, and consequences of America's food waste problem.

The rising health problems in the United States of America are caused by poor nutrition, people who are sedentary, the lack of healthcare prevention, and many more. As reported on the Tikkun website, “Of the many systems in our world today that need to be reimagined, none is more important for our future than our food system” (1). The lack of our food system is one of the many factors that has led the United States to its uprising dilemmas; one of the many factors are the food deserts across the U.S. Food deserts are geographic areas where access to affordable healthy and nutritious food are limited, or impossible to purchase, by residents in the area. Food deserts are prone to low-income areas that can’t afford transportation, and due to the lack of grocery stores and supermarkets that sells fresh produce and healthy food within convenient distance to resident’s homes, there is a difficulty in obtaining healthy food options which leads to countless health issues.
