How much food do you waste? I'm not great at keeping all my food but it's no where near as much as the 40% mentioned in here.

Alt: What's for dinner?

I think this nteresting as it's a classic case of trying to fix the symptons rather than dealing with the actual issue

Does the 40% include bones and peelings?
Because I think the 30%-40% thing is bollocks. I throw away a few tomatos and the stubby end of a cucumber a week on top of vegetable peelings, chicken bones and fat trimmed off pork. I put out two small bags of rubbish each week. and they're mostly nappies, I put out way more recycling than I do rubbish. Anyways I might just be weird but I generally don't buy food unless I know I will eat it. I also freeze a lot until I need it.

My attempt looks more pathetic than it is for two reasons
1. I suffer from dark hair, blond/ginger tache syndrome and 2. I shaved it all off last week so what I have there was only about 7 days growth rather than the 29 everyone else had.

Also fuck right off I look fucking sexy.

Oh, fucking loads.
I have these great ideas when I'm at the supermarket, buy a bunch of stuff, and then forget about it until it's gone off.

Which reminds me, I have a load of stewing steak I need to get in teh slow cooker for the weekend.

Fry it off with some flour for five mins and tip some wine in before, it makes a lot of difference.
