I learned to look in my fridge, know what's there, plan to use the oldest "fresh" stuff first, to buy more consciously to avoid over-buying, to freeze what I can't get to, to re-use parts (rinds, juice, etc.) for other things... so much to think about~

This has been a great exercise for me to think more consciously about food. Thanks!!! I have been changing my ways, and I will continue to think about this, notice what I do, plan, etc. Very worthwhile exercise. I'm so glad I did it!

I have always tried to be mindful of not wasting food. I grew up in a family of eight with a tight budget, so I learned how to appreciate what we grew in our garden and later ate together. However, this challenge has helped me to renew my commitment to follow these practices more closely now. Thank you.

I usually buy a lot of produce in bulk rather than bags with the exception of berries, citrus fruit and apples. This month I have also bought rice, nuts, bay leaves and dried beans in bulk. I am still learning how to estimate how much I need to purchase at one time but am certain that the amount of food I waste will be less.

Appreciation for the opportunity of stewarding nutritious food. : )

I am so glad I got invited to this challenge. I have learned so many helpful ways to stope waste and save money!

Thanks everyone for all the tips. It's been fun and educational. 😉👍

In such a short period of time with awareness we really can make a difference.

This month went way too fast. This challenge went so well I can't wait for the next.😀👍

Thank you everyone for the great comments.
