How to avoid food waste?

It is our instinct to hoard food, but excessive hoarding will inevitably lead to waste. If you often buy too much food by accident, try to make a list before shopping. This can not only avoid impulsive consumption and buy unnecessary food, but also remind yourself not to buy again before the next purchase.

② Store food correctly.

Sometimes we don't buy a lot of food, but because they are not stored in the right way, they can only be discarded.

This is because some vegetables and fruits will produce ethylene gas during ripening, while some vegetables and fruits are particularly sensitive to ethylene gas and will accelerate ripening after contact. Therefore, when you save them, you should pay special attention to avoid putting them together.

③ Transparent and visible, FIFO.

Try to put the remaining ingredients in a transparent bowl or bag so that they won't be forgotten. Regularly organize refrigerators and lockers to keep them clean and orderly. Put the newly bought food at the back, so that the previously bought food will not be left at the bottom of the box forever. If the shelf life of food is not long, it should be placed in a place where it is easier to see and get.

Let's act together to reduce food waste!
