I read a statistic that we Irish bin 33% of the food we buy and I'd be confident if ashamed that that was a fair estimate of our own family situation.
My question to you all is: Why, when I knew I was having 7 teency meals on AAMW did I buy enough salad to feed 20 people? I can excuse the turkey because I bought the smallest pre-pack available. But did I really need 8 types of salad?
And today - I had to go into LIDL and thought it'd be safe. I was buying a pocket radio. Nothing whatsoever to do with food. Ended up leaving with grilled chicken slices and Cadbury's Boosters, and two jars of Italian mushrooms. Even funnier is that I checked the BB dates in the shop and thought, yeah, no problem, they'll all last and we have none thus we need them. No, haven't eaten them, but it all goes towards the bafflement of why I've spent a fortune on cooking/food magazines and am glued to every cookery program on telly, mooching around on cookery websites as well as here.
Someone talked about eating by proxy. Perhaps that's what I'm at, but how does it auger for maintaining?
