Did you know that about 40% of food is wasted somewhere along the supply chain? That’s like stepping out of a grocery store with five bags of food and dropping two in the parking lot. You may not think you waste that much food at home, but the little bits here and there add up.
The Save Food, Spend Less Challenge will help you notice when you are wasting food, connect you with resources to help you reduce it, and provide support and motivation along the way.
Remember that developing new habits is a gradual process. Start by browsing the actions within each category and select actions that make sense for you and your household. In this challenge, you can select up to five daily actions and five one-time actions.

October 21 at 3:10 PMSometimes I fill up the cart, but not always. I think I could fit everything into a smaller cart or basket, because the cart is so big to just make your buy more stuff.

October 21 at 9:18 AMMy family and I are willing to eat different parts of an animal. For example, I use chicken liver to make pâté and beef oxtail to cook Pho. I do not have any challenges cooking animal organs because I know how to prepare them with spices such as star anise, cinnamon, ginger, and garlic. These spices help improve the flavor and smell of the food.
