Today I realized how much food I waste. Everything is so expensive, and yet I waste all this perfectly good food. I may not drink all of my soda, so I'll toss it out if it gets too warm or flat. I get fresh produce and then don't use it quick enough before it goes bad. I have leftovers and I don't finish them. Such a waste.
I think the solution to the soda is to buy smaller. I guess it's good that drinking more water has made me drink less soda, but I still hate to waste anything. For leftovers if I make something and I know I'm not going to eat it all within the next few days I need to make sure I freeze it. And as far as fresh produce goes, well I should really be eating more of that anyway, so I just need to eat it.
I'm sure if I thought about it there are probably other things in my life that I'm wasting aside from food. What am I spending money on that I shouldn't be? What else am I wasting in my life?
Sarvi drives me crazy with left overs...he will NOT eat them, no matter what. I hate throwing the food away too! I try to make less, but never want to run out either....
