food wastage.

Just been for a roast at the in laws. Lovely roast chicken. A couple hours later I pop into the kitchen to pick on the leftovers to find its been chucked away. There was easily enough meat left on the carcass it for a decent sandwich.

Speaking of this, went to pizza hut a while back and a family of chavs were having the buffet thing. They actually asked for a bucket to throw the bases away and just ate the toppings. What a fucking waste

You can boil the carcass with a few veges to make a decent stock, for putting in stews casseroles etc.

Exactly but the amount of meat left on this was absurd. I guess I've taken after my old man who would wait till the end of the meal and pick every last morsel of meat off the carcass.

I just hate wasting food and hate seeing it go into the bin. Especially good bits of meat.

You'd be happy here.

I'm a well fussy eater. I'll only have the white meat when it comes to chicken, the rest doesn't get thrown away though as the wife and daughter tuck into the rest. Skin and all, nowt left but bone.

I can't stand the sight of people sucking chicken skin an what not off a bone, I can't look. But it's efficient. They eat the heads and feet as well. (Not in my household, but Thai's in general).

I'm the fussiest eater in the world but I still hate waste. Recycle, get a pet, or a boyfriend less fussy than you (not in that order, I do love him more than the dog, honest)  

There was a terrible story earlier suggesting something like a quarter of apples are chucked and not sold in supermarkets on cosmetic grounds, which without wanting to sound too Bono is just insane when people are starving.

There was a piece on BBC Breakfast recently about the increase in the amount of food waste in restaurants that's caused by diners leftovers (Due mainly to the increase in portion sizes over the last few years). The cunning way the industry is planning to combat this? Doggie bags.

My solution? Stop making portions so fucking large. We're not the US.

We eat at a pub recently and the amount of food I was given made me feel bad. Honestly, it could have fed a family of five comfortably.

I love eating out with the family because i know my missus doesn't eat a lot and there's guaranteed leftovers for me.
