[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up middle class, but lately feel guilty about habits that my parents would consider to be wasting food. For example, tossing fruit that is overripe but not rotten (my mom recently scooped pieces of strawberries out of my sink to eat my discards), eating only the white meat and legs from a rotisserie chicken, trying new foods and getting rid of things we don’t like. [/quote] You should feel guilty about the rotisserie chicken. Food waste is a problem that extends beyond your pocketbook. Do you really just throw away food that isn't your favorite?[/quote] This is a good distinction. It's one thing to indulge in things, but quite another to just throw things away. I tell my kids all the time, they can have pretty much whatever food they want, but they have to eat all of it. [/quote]
