As a country we waste $27,000,000,000 of food every year. $27 billion. More than half being food that's thrown out of our homes because we didn't finish what was on our plate.

That's $850/per person every year. Gone. Wasted. Really sickened by that.

next time you have something left on your plate, put it in the gad damned fridge to eat later. don't throw it out. Next time I'm asked 'do you want this? I was just going throw it out anyways' by someone holding a perfectly good food I'm going to pee all over them. That happens way too often.

I do my part and directly waste $0 of food. Nothing. Everything I buy and everything that's put on my plate I eat.

anyways, fuck you all.

I was thinking this same thing. Why not get a dog then I was like oh yeah not the point haha. On another note no food ever goes in trash, just goes to dog bowl.

Speaking of wasteful, I hate at the grocery store when you buy one item and they need to put it in a plastic bag. I feel like a dick but I'm always like no I'm set here's your bag thanks

No, I will not save leftovers. Unless i'm stoned, or planning on getting stoned. So, I might start saving leftovers on the weekends. Other then that, fuck you and your thread. If africa was gone the world would be a better place anyways.

That came across horribly racist, which it was not intended to be. I mean, if Africa gone, there would be less hunger, slaves, sweat shops ect...

But as for leftovers, no.

Stop fucking whining. People throw away food. Get over it. I can afford to eat fresh food every day, and if I don't feel like saving 3 bites of food that would only satisfy a homeless person, you bet your ass I'm gonna throw it away and not feel a single second of guilt.

Good luck wasting $0 dollars on food. Do you save onion skin or throw in out? If you throw it out you're wasting money because you paid for the whole onion.

Don't be too hard on your self. America is the land of the wasteful. I would be surprised if we waste triple that here in imperialist-consumer-corporate- America. I feel you though, it is disgusting.

People like you are so fucking hypocritical half the time. My room mates all go off on me how i dont recycle my cans every time, whilst one of them is polluting the fuck out of the atmosphere because their car doesn't have a catalytic converter due to their chinyness to purchase one.

Go ahead an get on our back for not saving our dinner scrapings, but before you do, assess your current standing in the future beneficials of our nation--if you find yourself to be perfect, you're either retarded or a liar

do you have a career that inputs into the economical environment?

do you address health discrepancies between socioeconomically different groups?

i could keep going on, but im just gonna stop here.

First, how lazy are you that you can't recycle cans every time?

Second, yeah no one in our current society is perfect but calling people "fucking hypocritical" for being concerned about waste is just plain counter-productive.

Attacking people for their habits is not really a good practice, you just make enemies. We need allies not enemies, solutions, not more problems.

So, say you have some people over to watch football and order a couple pizzas. Are you gonna yell at the girl who doesn't eat her crust and tell her to put it in the fridge so you can eat it later? Do you realize how fucking stupid that sounds? You're not saving the environment by collecting pizza crust in your fridge, and that pizza crust sure as shit isn't going to save a starving child in Africa.
