Claudine Mayo

I will learn about food labels and not throw food out just based on the date on the package, but instead check the smell and color to see if it has gone bad.

I will learn about food storage and store food based on best practices to keep it from spoiling before it is used.

I will resist impulse buys by eating a snack or meal before going grocery shopping. Those who grocery shop on an empty stomach spend 64% more than not-hungry shoppers.

If I am missing an ingredient for a recipe I will find a substitute I have on hand and use that instead.

I will take a fridge and pantry inventory to stay up to date with what I have at home before I go grocery shopping.
