[quote=Anonymous]I think composting has to be part of the answer. After I learned about the greenhouse effects of food waste in landfills we started paying for compost pickup weekly. There is just so much that is not edible—coffee grounds, banana peels, onion paper, apple cores, watermelon rind, corn husks, meat bones, etc. Like others, we freeze aging fruit for smoothies. Wrinkled tomatos get roasted. Brocolli stalks are shredded for a Thai curry salad I make. Old bread is frozen until I have enough to make breakfast casserole or Brown Betty. I even cook down bones from meat to make bone broth and I give the sludge and tendony stuff to my dog as a dog treat. I love ideas for using up stuff though! Keep the ideas coming! [/quote]
