    The housewives rave "to show their muscles" on the tables, but the fate of the food often ends in garbage bags, because of the weakness of "consumer culture" in most families.
    Some families share their feuds during the Ramadan holidays, and each family offers a range of meals that are too much to attend, leading to unnecessary waste.
    Psychological researcher Saad al-Olawi, the difference between the terms of extravagance and waste, in an interview with "economy News," saying that "waste refers to the disbursement of funds in the wrong place, but excess means the increase in food and drink is not natural need of man."
    "The causes of wastefulness are related to the existence of a mental disorder in the personality of the individual and is often inherited, or the unsatisfied needs of the individual are those who push him to act with passion and without patience, and believes that this makes him mentally stable."
    He pointed out that "members of the community get a little obsession during the month of Ramadan to pay them for the extravagance, the market is crowded with the vulnerable as if the needs will disappear, then are strong desires that push the individual to conduct extravagance in an attempt to satisfy his mental disorders.
    He pointed out that "the extravagance in the month of Ramadan, may be considered a sign of psychological depression, but the person imagines a kind of bragging through the diversification of food in front of others in the banquet," noting that "fasting has an internal strength towards food, which buys and eat at breakfast "He said.
    The Iraqi government has launched the poverty reduction strategy 2018-2022 in cooperation with the World Bank, allocating $ 3.4 billion to implement 32 projects, The strategy aims to reduce poverty by 25% in 2022.
    Zahra Hussein, a 23-year-old housewife, told Al-Iqtisad News that the percentage of her family's spending during the month doubled. "My family is keen to provide extra boxes of sterile water and juices with large quantities And different types, in addition to the dishes preferred by the family, "noting that" many of these foods exceed the need of the family. "
    "My mother, and since the beginning of Ramadan, she has been preparing a meal that is too much for the family and goes to a poor family living near our home instead of wasting it in the trash," she said.
    Ali Sahib, who works as a teacher at a primary school, said it was difficult to keep some dishes, since they must be eaten immediately after cooking.
    Ahmad Bassem, 20, told Al-Iqtisad News that "the family's spending during Ramadan increased by a small percentage, but it remained at the natural rate of food, without extravagance and waste."
    Solutions and processors
    The first concerns "food banks," which are one of the most effective means to eliminate the waste of food that occurs most of the year, and Ramadan in particular. These banks aim to reduce the loss and waste of food in communities with Improved food availability, quality assurance and affordability for the poor.
    And second, imposing financial fines on those who leave excess food in their dishes with restaurants.
    "The phenomenon of waste of food is not related to the well-being of the communities, but to the culture in which they are spread," said sociologist Youssef Ghuloum in a statement to the Post Post. "Negative behavior of consumption, sometimes related to customs and traditions, Weddings and events that witness the provision of food and drink significantly increase the need to attend, the highest images of food waste in our society is based on bragging, especially in the celebrations and parties and other social and religious events ».
    Profiles of global waste of food
    The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has said that the world is wasting 1.3 billion tons of food annually, almost a third of the world's food production, and enough to feed about 2 billion people.
    While the United Nations confirms that the number of hungry people in the world reached 815 million.
    "The European Union wastes about 22 million tonnes of food every year, and Britain is the worst," figures from the Environmental Research Research Leagues in 2015 show.
    The single French gets rid of 20 to 30 kilos per year, estimated at between $ 13 billion and $ 22 billion a year, and in the United States, 30 percent of the food is wasted every year (up to $ 48 billion) And in Italy, 8.8 million tons of food are wasted.
    In Spain, the volume of food waste is 7.6 million tons per year.
    On the Arab front, statistics published by the Saudi General Organization for Statistics show that "the Saudi citizen wastes 427 kg of food every year." The level of waste in Saudi Arabia exceeded twice the world average.
    According to a 2009 report by the Abu Dhabi Waste Management Center, food waste accounts for 34% of the total waste in the UAE and about 500 tons of food is disposed of during the month of Ramadan alone. The waste is disposed of by landfill, which increases Of carbon emissions, and thus exacerbate climate change.
