Food Waste Friday | Spot The Difference

April 22, 2016 by SimplyBeingMum

Salad

Can you spot the difference this Food Waste Friday? 1 is waste, 1 is fresh. I'm guessing you can spot the difference, although it can be tricky with salad - a photograph doesn't always show how inedible it is. Maybe it's the vibrant colours? I guarantee the salad on the left isn't edible, not by me anyway. It smells rather funky. What did I ...

The Food Waste Friday link up is back! Yay! It's Friday guys - Food Waste Friday. (I've completed my Friday routine and a Fridge photo is over on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) In my hand I have blueberries. Berries, in my experience, are one of those foods that may be fine to eat in the morning, yet can be inedible by the afternoon. I have ...

Love Food Hate Waste

This is a sponsored post in support of the very worthwhile campaign 'Meaty Issues' by Love Food Hate Waste. Us Brits are no strangers to using up our leftover turkey.

What Would You Do With An Unexpected £600?

June 24, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

I'm a sucker for facts and figures. For example Love Food Hate Waste report that £60 of each family's food spend is thrown away in the UK every month. That's £720 a year on average and that's post tax, we have to earn much more to actually buy that food. (Want to reduce that figure? I'd recommend taking part in Food Waste Friday hosted here this Friday and ...

It's Friday Guys - My turn once more to host Food Waste Friday! Each week since March 2008, in order to motivate her to waste less food, Kristen The Frugal Girl, has posted a picture of any food that has gone bad over the last seven days.
