FOOD

Sustainability

As human beings, we're often drawn to things that are new and shiny. The clothes on the sales rack never look as enticing as the beautifully displayed items in the 'just in' section. The same goes for food. The leftovers in the fridge just aren't as appetizing as they seemed yesterday… This attitude often leads to old food containers and sad vegetables sitting in the fridge until they eventually get thrown in the garbage.

Indeed, studies have shown that the average US household throws out approximately one-third of its food. But this kind of waste is completely avoidable if you change your attitude towards leftovers and unused ingredients in your fridge, and make some small adjustments to your habits. Click through this gallery to get some top tips and recipe ideas for your leftovers.
