Segue from music to food. Y’all are familiar with….”If you’ve heard the latest stats, you know that 40 percent of all food is wasted in the United States. And nearly half of that waste comes from households. Whether you’re eating at home or out at a restaurant, don’t let leftover edible food go to waste in the trash or compost bin. No amount is too little to save when your hard-earned money and resources are on the line.”
We heard of someone who we know slightly, who is the antithesis of this advice. After serving anything, all the leftovers are dumped (not composted). When I say all, I mean all. This has been on my mind since I heard it. We never discard even one molecule of food that could be repurposed and reused.
We knew about this strange behavior a few years ago locally. After a one-day power failure, there were no condiments like mustard and mayonnaise left on grocery shelves. People had discarded everything in their refrigerators! Waste not want not.
