...is a great website with ideas and tips for using all the food we buy. It is estimated that we throw out one third of the food we buy!...and think of the wasted money too.
I have stopped buying bagged veg and fruit. I just think of how many carrrots will we actually eat and buy two loose ones instead of 20 and end up throwing out many of them or using then when they are less than fresh. It costs less in the long run and your food is fresh and wholesome.

We here in this household have virtually no food waste as we have three well fed dogs and chicken bones and bits are thrown into the open fire in winter.
