The holidays are a time of celebration, joy, and gatherings with family and friends. And with a lot of focus on overconsumption and abundance comes an unpleasant reality—food waste. On Thanksgiving alone, ReFED estimates that 320 million pounds of food will go to waste, equating to $550 million worth of food thrown away in a single day.

But there’s a lot of low-hanging fruit when it comes to wasting less, and these strategies can be easy, practical, and delicious. And as a fun way to get into the holiday season, we’ve enlisted a friend of ReFED to explore some of these culinary techniques.

On December 12, 2025, at 1 pm ET, join ReFED and popular Chinese American chef, content creator, and podcast host Jon Kung for a demonstration on how to minimize food waste and maximize taste this holiday season.
