'Supervalue' - a look at food miles and food waste

Do you know how much energy it takes to prepare your dinner? You may think eating fish fingers is as easy as popping them under the grill, but just how much energy was involved in their manufacture? 'Supervalue' begins with ocean fishing and follows the process through transport, manufacturing, assembly, refrigeration, transport, storage in supermarket, purchase, refrigeration, cooking and then finally to its decomposition.

Does anyone see the irony that they themselves threw those fish fingers away just to make this video?

Bloody hell. I'd make the kid eat the frigging fish fingers.
