8 things you can do to fight food waste
Whilst many people suffer of hunger, others waste tremendous amounts of food.
A total of ⅓ of all produced food gets wasted
A food production is the #1 reason for deforestation and takes most of our fresh water resources…
Here are 8 things you can do to fight food waste

1. Make smoothies, soups and sauces
Turn ripe fruits into delicious smoothies or shakes and turn any leftover vegetables, potatoes or meat into a soup or sauce.
2. Check your fridge
The optimal temperature of a fridge is 4 degrees celsius. Your food won’t stay fresh longer if the temperature is higher.
3. Freeze portions
Cooking more food at once means you’ll always have a fresh meal on a busy day and you won’t be wasting extra food.
4. Introduce a weekly leftover day
Prepare dishes from leftovers on a specific day of the week.
5. Expiration date ≠ sell by date
Do not pay too much attention to expiration dates as they identify food quality, not food safety.
6. Plan meals
Before shopping make a list of the ingredients each of the meals require.
And avoid unnecessary impulse purchases
7. Visit a recycle restaurant
These restaurants cook dinners with leftovers or unsold food from retailers.
8. Compost
Despite all efforts you might have some waste, use it wisely. Home composting can take some of your leftovers and waste and turn them into fertile soil for your garden!
9. Comment #YES and share if you agree we must fight food waste
