Gino D’Acampo: ‘People are dying of starvation and we’re throwing food away – how wrong are we?’
After over 30 years in the UK, there’s something Gino D’Acampo can’t get used to: the food waste.
“We are used to going to the supermarket and going to places to buy our food – to touch it, to smell it,” the TV chef says of his hometown in Naples, Italy.
“In the last 30 years that I’ve been here, I’ve always been thinking: why do these people buy everything in a plastic bag? Why do they buy so much stuff they don’t need?”
For D’Acampo – who is a regular face on and fronts alongside and Fred Sirieix – it’s “crazy” to wrapped up in plastic.
