Probably not, if your remaining food items resemble leftovers from a ransacked abandoned refugee camp. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

No it doesn't. I cook every single day and zero waste. None. Nada. When I get a bunch of veggies that are left i make a stir fry of all of them with some chicken. Cook's who say they have a lot of waste are usually rank amateurs. It's why god invented fridges and freezers. There are countless ways in cooking never to have any waste at all. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Exactly, you have to do a ton of planning and coming up with creative recipes to do that. Easy when you are retired. That’s why the meal kits are paying for convenience. |

I didn't start cooking when I retired I started when I was 8 years old. I've cooked my entire adult life and most of my teen years. The problem is people who think they're cooks are not cooks at all. They think spreading a ripe avocado on a piece of toast is cooking. Or making a bowl of Top Ramen and a peanut butter sandwich for dinner is cooking. Or making a grilled cheese sandwich and heating a Cup O Soup in the microwave is cooking. It's not. Far fewer people are cooking in the US than ever before and far more people are obese because of it. How many how many places now deliver food from almost any restaurant to your door. There's got to be at least a dozen or more. Uber Eats, Door Dash, GrubHub, instacart, chownow, Seamless, how many of these companies were even around 5 years ago. Nobody's cooking everybody is sitting at home getting obese on sugar and fat laden restaurant food. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | For instance, last night I made stir fry out of catfish nuggets, onion, tomato, mushrooms, and frozen cauliflower and broccoli. Frozen always works better than fresh for stir fry. Lots of spices like garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, smoked paprika, white pepper, basil, oregano. Tonight I didn't have enough left over for a meal so I made seaweed wraps out of it. With sliced tomato and avocado on the side. I used it cold because the flavors of the spices are so intense when it's been sitting overnight. It was stir fry catfish sushi. No leftovers no waste. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
