they must have money to burn


There is no food waste here

very little here, mainly veg peelings

  I can see how some of it happens.  I regularly end up throwing a third of a loaf away, simply because I don't use it before it goes mouldy.  I'd freeze half of it, but I can't stand bread that's been frozen.

I am not keen on previously frozen bread, it is different in texture

i am always throwing out of date food out

Only bread gets binned here... or goes via the birds' innards.

I'm forever eating leftovers 

[TheFribbler]

bread now has ingredients to make it go off.  they used to feed it to pigs but they cant cos its mouldy

Is it coincidence that this report comes out just as a marketting campaign starts to promote frozen food causing less waste?

[Mike]

I buy what I need and that's all

I`m guilty of chucking or giving  food away  mostly because we just don`t have any shops around here so I tend to do a large weekly shop and make sure we don`t run out . Fine if there is room in the freezer but not so good otherwise

pauls folks are always donating food to us. Usually out of date crisps though

very little here, mainly veg peelings

 Not even that here, Nell & Topsy have them

We throw away more than we probably should
