The aim of the study is to find out the factors that affect the bread wastage by consumers in Kahramanmaras. Main material of this study is the survey data obtained from the questionnaires that were performed face-to-face with 384 consumers in 2013. Binomial Logit Model is used to estimate the factors affecting the bread wastage. According to results consumers buy average 2.38 loaves of bread per day, and 10% of these are surplus. They transform some part (71%) of the surplus bread into new products, and throw the remaining part (29%) away into waste, or give as animal feed to relevant people. According to results, gender, education, being housewife, bread consumption amount, preparing pastry, pie in the house was found statistically significant.
