When we have leftovers/food about to go bad, we put it in the freezer so it doesn't spoil and go to waste.
We are also mindful to have perishables (such as fresh fruit and veg) for snacks instead of non-perishables that won't go bad.

In my house we eat lots of fruit and with extra fruit or fruit that is going bad like bananas we use them to make banana bread or other baked goods so we dont waste the perfectly fine fruit

We like buying from Costco because their products come in bulk, so there is less packaging and more products. Also when we eat we try to eat all the food that is made and if there are leftovers, we will freeze it, eat it the next day or give it to neighbors. After eating, if there are any food scrapes we put them in the compost.

In my house we recycle and compost as much as we can to reduce the amount of garbage that goes to the landfill. We try and use the leftover food in our fridge to make a meal to avoid food waste.

When at home, my family uses the compost for food waste instead of the garbage, which is a better way to dispose of food. Ideally, the food gets eaten, but if there is food that goes bad, it goes in the compost bin which we have taken by the garbage truck to be disposed of properly. We also freeze leftover gravy and meat, and we often reuse them in soups and stews instead of throwing them in the compost.

Rather than buying plastic water bottles, my family buys our water in water jugs. Plastic water bottles usually end up in the Ocean or landfill. I think it is an easy sustainable practice that others should consider doing. The Water also tastes 10x better!

I have pets that eat vegetables so when my family cuts up vegetables they always feed the leftover bits to them

we try to eat almost everything in the fridge before going to the store so we have less food going bad and going to waste

When shopping, my family tries to buy foods sold in recyclable or environmentally-friendly materials such as cardboard as opposed to styrofoam.

My mother is a very crafty home cook and she does a bunch of things to make sure we don't waste any food, especially things like vegetables and fruits. She freezes are meals in takeout containers so when she's at work we still all have something to eat, and she freezes our fruits when they are about to go bad to use for smoothies later.

I would like to reduce even more of my food waste by getting more creative at home with recipes that use up all food scraps. For example, keeping carrot or onion peels frozen to make broths and soup bases at a later date.
