Practical tips to reduce food waste and save money
Plan your weekly meals and create a shopping list. Buy only what you need and stick to your list.
Learn proper storage techniques. Keep fruits and vegetables in the right conditions to extend their life.
"Best before" dates are about quality, not safety. Use your senses to judge if food is still good.
Freeze surplus food before it spoils. Most foods can be frozen, including bread, meat, and cooked meals.
Transform leftovers into new meals. Yesterday's roast chicken becomes today's soup or sandwich filling.
Compost unavoidable food waste like peels and cores. It's great for your garden and the environment.
