You pay a lot of money for that artisan loaf of bread, then don’t eat it all before it gets stale. You have a recipe that calls for egg whites (or yolks) but not the rest of the egg. The rotisserie chicken is pretty much stripped of the best meat.
But don’t throw them away!
Some estimates say that we waste as much as 40% of our groceries because we buy them but don’t eat them. In 2021, the Environmental Protection Agency reported that food waste in America accounted for 250 to 500 pounds of food per person, per year. OK, enough of the shocking statistics. Ask yourself, though: How much of the food I buy ends up in the trash or compost heap?
Maybe you’re just not being smart about using things that seem useless.
