Food Waste

[Joe]

I’m pretty guilty of wasting food if I’m totally honest, just before covid kicked off I increased flour to over 100kg and 80% of that went in the skip after about 6 months but this did give me the capability of making 200 loafs under a worst case situation so I wasn’t complaining.
In addition to that I bought dozens of cans I would never use, things like spaghetti hoops which might appear nuts but at 20p for a can it was almost enough to keep someone going for a day with a bit of bread.
This was my back up to my back up, I needed something cheap to extend food capabilities for a few extra months and for a few hundred pounds it was perfect.
Now overall loss of the covid pandemic might amount to hundreds of pounds, maybe 500 but I did factor this in prior to the event.
So yes I’m guilty of food waste but it was not a normal situation.
