Tesco to launch 'wonky veg' range

Perfectly Imperfect produce will be introduced in 200 stores this week in crackdown on food waste

Tesco is stepping up efforts to tackle food waste with the launch of a "wonky veg" range and a pledge to send all unwanted fresh produce to charity by end of next year.

The Perfectly Imperfect will initially offer parsnips and potatoes before expanding to include a further 15 types of produce, including carrots and apples, over the next few months. The scheme is launching in about 200 stores from Friday.
