 Food Waste - BobbyG
The last supermarket I worked in binned £10k of waste - per week!!!

In our house we used to bin a lot, SWMBO who does the shopping would open the fridge, pull out all the out of date stuff (that she had bought), put all the replacements in (of the same thing) and then repeat every week.

Of course we would get the blame for not eating it! Mind you, she was right when she said that never in her life has she had to chuck out crisps for having gone out of date.....

We now do several small shops a week instead of one big one, most nights we are driving past the supermarket anyway so makes sense to get little and often.
