-
GooseBarry @NehaNBB true, but I think we need to rely on our senses like we used to - bad milk smells bad. Maybe a milk sniff test workshop should be held in schools.

DietID_TeamDietitians I think I was in the same club. My parents were also master reinventers - giving new life to leftovers. I picked up lots of creative tricks from this, and also got very good at planning portions...

FarmerDave I add them to a simple stir fry with ginger and tamari. I never used to keep turnip greens, but I'm so glad I do now.

olivettefarm @RahulRaRa I bet you could. The turnips greens will cook a little quicker than spinach does possibly. @FarmerDave that sounds good! Gonna have to try that.

MargaretG I love this idea, though.

darkchocolatepeanutbutter I used to donate my meal swipes at NYU and I was aware of the expensive price of meal plans. I think it makes sense to require meal plans for freshmen in dorm housing but otherwise it's another way...
