[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a good friend who literally sweeps any leftover food directly into the trash at the end of a meal.  [/quote]

Maybe she’s learned, like I have, that it feels wasteful to toss leftovers, so we spend a great deal of time decanting in to Tupperware, placing all in fridge IN TE FRONT, then vaguely planning re-use, “I’ll make Turkey soup, quiche, take the pasta for lunch, will eat stuffing as a side every day for a week, make potato pancakes tomorrow...”

Then five days pass and there the leftovers are untouched and stacked, so all gets dumped down the garbage disposal, empty Tupperware in the dishwasher.

After doing this several times, it’s easiest to skip the intermediate steps and toss all.

Sad, but true.

Caveat: DS18 will ask me to save a few things but these will be gone within a day.[/quote]

Not a problem in my house.  Especially during COVID when we’re all home, last night’s dinner is today’s lunch.  Sometimes someone has even already snagged it by breakfast!  Plus, some foods are just better the next day anyway. [/quote]
