In Weining County, Bijie, Guizhou Province, a recent banquet held by a family was unfortunately maliciously damaged by unknown people, and a large amount of salt was found in the food. The incident quickly attracted public attention, especially on social media, with many netizens expressing strong concerns and criticisms about the problem of food waste.

It is reported that the incident occurred on January 31, and a local resident carefully prepared a sumptuous banquet to celebrate the birthday of the elders in the family. However, guests soon noticed that the food tasted unusual, and upon examination, it was found that excessive salt had been sprinkled into several dishes, making the food inedible. **An investigation has been initiated, and the identity and motive of the perpetrators have not yet been clarified.

This incident is not only a loss for a family, but also a great waste of social resources. In China, food waste has always been a problem that has aroused widespread concern in society. According to statistics, China's annual food loss due to food waste is as high as tens of billions of catties. This is disrespectful not only to the food, but also to the hard-working farmers.

Behind the food waste, it reflects the deviation of people's consumption concept and the lack of social responsibility. In some banquets, in order to show the enthusiasm and generosity of the host, it is common to prepare more food than is actually needed. Guests often leave untouched food as a courtesy, which inadvertently exacerbates food waste.

In addition, food waste is closely linked to the current food security situation. Factors such as global climate change and frequent natural disasters have had a significant impact on food production, and food security has become a global challenge. Against this backdrop, every piece of food that is wasted is particularly precious.

All sectors of society should attach great importance to this incident. First of all, the first department should strengthen the publicity and education of food waste and improve the public's awareness of conservation. Secondly, the catering industry should also assume social responsibility and reduce food waste by reasonably controlling food portions and providing packaging services. Finally, consumers themselves should also establish a correct concept of consumption, start from themselves, and cherish every grain of food.

Overall, food waste is a complex social problem, which requires the joint efforts of enterprises, enterprises and the public to form a joint force in order to fundamentally solve it. Through this incident, it is hoped that more people's reflection and action can be aroused, and jointly promote the formation of a good social trend of saving food and cherishing resources.

In the future, we look forward to seeing more positive changes, not only in reducing food waste, but also in raising awareness and respect for the use of resources in society as a whole. Only in this way can we ensure food security, achieve sustainable development and ensure that future generations can enjoy adequate food resources.
