Do you ever waste food?

I try to eat everything in the fridge, even if it is on the verge of going bad, but of course it it is very very bad I will throw it out to avoid getting sick. But if the banana is black I will still eat it. If the cherry is a little expired, I will still consume it. I take pride in how I never waste a physical resource.

Recently I have been trying to finish up the orange juice my parents bought in anticipation for some kids they planned to invite over for a barbecue, the kids never showed up and we ended up with all this orange juice in our fridge so we've been trying to consume it so as not to waste our money buying it.

Rarely. I eat expired groceries, especially if I can cook them or fry them. The only food poisoning I got was from an Asian restaurant (spoiled mushrooms).

Try not to, but often make too much that gets saved in the fridge, but often gets thrown out later

I try not too but sometimes it's unavoidable. Better to be safe than sorry when it comes to meat that smells a bit iffy.

Embracing efforts to reduce food waste is truly admirable. I often find creative culinary uses for items that seem past their prime. Overripe bananas can transform into delicious banana bread, and slightly expired cherries are delightful in jams or smoothies. Your dedication reminds me of meals I've crafted from seemingly tired ingredients, turning potential waste into delicious creations. It's a rewarding experience both gastronomically and environmentally 🍌🍒.
