  • JenniferEmilson Totally @garv Quinoa is a classic example. It started trending here in NA, and then suddenly the countries where it was a lowly staple started exporting more, and the locals could no longer eat...

40% of food waste comes from our homes. Here is a guide as to how long after the expiration date you can use it. When in doubt, use your nose. How do you rescue food at your home?
  • DietID_TeamDietitians this is awesome!! great #nofoodwaste tips! my big tip for food waste is to use the food that goes bad quickly before food that lasted longer- like greens before potatoes
  • Athina @Rachna I am a fan of vegetable hierarchy.
  • Athina Another #nofoodwaste tip is to chop up wilting vegetables and freeze them to use later in broths. For fruits, I juice them and put them in ice cube trays to use in cocktails.
