Food waste from a psychological perspective (Answer of Q23 )

This time I will focus on the issues of food waste from a psychological perspective and find the answer of Q23. What are the characteristics of the person who left their meals?

One of the possible causes is likes and dislikes. The person who have a large extent of likes and dislikes tends to leave parts of their plates. It is sure that people are reluctant to eat what they dislike. 

Another cause of this problem is a diet; Those who go on a diet regulate their amount of meals, so they may feel guilty if they eat too much. In particular, they tend to leave some parts of carbonhydrate, such as rice or bread, because it is the major cause of getting fat.

In addition, I found an interesting article that describes leaving a part of meals is manners. At the banquet in Japan, people do not eat their meals completely on purpose in order to continue the meals for longer time. It indicates the spirits of giving hospitality  and receiving hospitality.

I think that these sites are credible because there are many possible causes published on these sites. We should find the solutions of food waste from psychological perspective, too.
