Interesting Food - Bread

According to The Canal & River Trust in the UK, every year, Britons throw 6 million loaves of bread into the waterways, rivers and canals of the UK.

Duck! Bread!

(The reason?  We love feeding the ducks and swans.  
Apart from the waste, there are other problems: Firstly it's not their natural diet, and secondly the bread is damaging Britain's waterways, casing algae, disease and encouraging pests.
The trust is asking people to feed the birds with grapes and peas instead.

I wonder what the birds will make of that.)
