Leftovers from New Year's Eve
parties were worth approximately half a million euros this year,
according to an Ixè survey commissioned by farmers' association
Coldiretti out on Monday.
The poll found that a growing number of families use
leftovers for subsequent meals for both economic and ethical
reasons.
A reported 33% of households cut down waste in 2016 and 25%
said they had completely eliminated leftovers, the survey found.
Only 7% said they had more leftovers last year while 31% said
they had maintained the same level as the previous year.
