Food Waste And How To Cut It Down In Your Home

Food waste is often talked about, its really important to help our environment with these four things.

Buy Less-

• Buying the right amount of food for your family, often way less than you think.
• Finding the right balance between buying to much that it goes off quicker than you can eat it and not driving to the store everyday, because that is also harmful to our environment.
• Buying simple foods that will last/ could be cooked in many different meals (Tinned chopped tomatoes, simple veg, lentils.)

Wonky Food-

• Not being afraid to buy food from that store that has bumps, wrinkles all different thing wrong because by the time you have cooked, fryed, steamed or peeled it'll be fine.
• Also not being afraid to eat wonky slightly off food more often than not it is actually fine.

Leftovers-

• Making your food into leftovers, not just throwing it out.
• putting it away in a way that your know whats inside, youll be more inclined to eat then.
• Actually eating the leftover, making it the norm to make food and eat the leftovers all before you cook a whole new meal.
• Looking in the fridge if there is a half cut lemon or onion before you cut into a whole new one

Composting-

• composting your food so once you have done all the things you can the food goes back into the earth, I don't know to much about composting but I know its big part on helping our environment
