While the issue of wasting food is a global epidemic, this study focuses specifically on Women Infant, and Children (WIC) participants in Indianapolis, IN. Anecdotally, many U.S. food organizations are concerned about the amount of food waste, particularly among the populations they serve. The literature on food waste suggests that people's behaviors, attitudes, and perceptions regarding food waste are influenced by many factors, including adults' age, children's age, and educational background. Aim: The purpose of this study is to understand behavior, attitudes, and factors that influence food waste among WIC program beneficiaries in Indianapolis, IN. Also, this study explores the level of knowledge about food waste and its side effects.
