It might not matter financially but in places across the World, half a bag of veg would go a long way - do you home compost?
Do U add up exactly what you throw away in the course of 4-6 weeks? Where does it go, into landfill or Council composting scheme, some Councils are better than others
. Plus the plastic bag it's stored in, that's my biggest gripe - plastic in general
. In your situation I would buy frozen veg where possible: peas, chopped mixed peppers, sweetcorn: [though I HATE frozen greens i.e. sprouts
] - sprouts, tomatoes, peppers, all keep in a cool dark place, long after the 'use by' date
as do spuds. That way you can cook exactly what you can eat in a meal. This morning I threw out the rest of the cold mashed potatoes, starlings were soon down for it as well as a male blackbird - no waste there then.
I can't abide trifle, all that phaffing when it could be served separately
.
Should be pancakes tonight but probably not until the weekend ...... with sugar and lemon juice, of course
