Are you a food waster?

[NinetyOne]

Honestly I can't stand people who waste food, sure you can't always get kids to finish their lunch and dinner but adults!

Especially when it comes to wasting meat.. I went out for a meal today with my family for my cousins 30th and damn at the amount of food left...makes you think about all the people starving

Maybe I'm just overreacting I dunno

Don't ever go to America.

I waste as little as possible but sometimes just happens.

Same here, worst thing is my mother is the worst at it.

Always cooks way too much so half of it goes in the bin. It's even worse when we have the family round for Christmas, the massive downstairs fridge get's stocked from top to bottom with enough food to feed a small country. Again, uneaten = bin.

I try my best not to waste anything. Sometimes I do but can't be helped but I do usually get back to it 5-10 mins later if I can.

If I leave anything I usually save it for later.

I have been known to waste food because sometimes I simply can't get through something before it expires. Like some pate I have in the fridge, you're supposed to use within 3 days of opening it. There's no way I can possibly get through all that pate in 3 days. Bread is another bad one because it always goes stale a few days after you buy it, and I can't get through an entire loaf that quickly.

It's one of the downsides of living alone.

I try and not waste anything. I even feel quilty when I throw away potato peelings.

You can hardly blame people for being full, can you? :s

Nothing wrong with being full of course but it's not the same as being full and having food left

 

[Freefaller]

I hate throwing away food. I'm quite good at buying what I need for myself so I seldom have to bin any of it.

If I cook too much I will save it for the next day or freeze it.

Big difference between being full and being greedy and wasteful !

This. I started wasting vastly less when I moved into a student house compared to living at home.

Freeze your bread after 3 or 4 days, winner!

this x 1million.
Would you rather program your children to keep eating, even though they are no longer hungry. I can't see any problems arising from this down the line.

I'm about to waste half a chinese. My eyes were bigger than my stomach

 

[Mark A]

I hardly ever waste food but I've just left almost a full plate of lasagne as its comprised of 95% half cooked lasagne sheets. The only way I could eat it would be to lick the sauce off each sheet.

 

[Schizo]

never ever waste food.

what i buy i eat
