Keep Track of Wasted Food
#3 Reduced Food Waste
I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during the EcoChallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.

Jessica January 4/21/2018 11:11 PMToday i did a large grocery haul/cleaned out the fridge. Unfortunately, some OJ, a few greens and some brussels sprouts went bad. We also found a couple half eaten left overs that ended up being tossed. I tried to meal plan out my next couple weeks meals, so that everything I bought would be used and I will also be saving money! -
Jessica January 4/20/2018 11:04 PMToday I purchased some asparagus and celery and had lunch out w/ a friend st a local restaurant. I ate the leftovers as my dinner and had nothing left :) I figure I’ll eat the asparagus tomorrow with one or two of my meals- or as a snack along with the celery! -
Jessica January 4/17/2018 9:34 PMUpdate- still just using up random foods and not buying anything new! So far so good. I’m really noticing how much I waste and that I could be saving a lot more money honestly. -
Jessica January 4/15/2018 7:43 PMToday I finished up my loaf of bread making a sandwich for lunch, and ate frozen waffles for breakfast. For dinner I enjoyed a salad, and am confident I am going to finish those bulk greens! I also noticed my two bananas are at perfect ripeness, so i will be incorporating that into my weekly breakfast. Got another loaf of bread, and will be eating sandwiches again for lunches. I have not thrown away any more food and it seems that if I can resist the convenience of going out to eat, I will finish up all my groceries! -
Jessica January 4/14/2018 8:43 PMI ate out for dinner tonight, and consumed my whole meal minus one salad role which I saved for a snack! I had some frozen food for breakfast, and a sandwich and yogurt for lunch from home. I'm getting worried the salad is definitely going to go bad before I finish it. I guess salads all next week to try to finish it all! My bananas are also about ripe, so I will be incorporating those into my daily diet. -
Jessica January 4/13/2018 11:10 PMToday I cleaned out the refrigerator of some old items- containing about 1/4 can of black beans, 2 jalapenos, a half package of broccoli/cauliflower, and half of an uneaten package of turkey. This was all bought before the challenge! Today I ate a salad, and a sandwich all from food I already had. -
Jessica January 4/12/2018 7:51 PMToday I woke up extremely ill, so I haven't been able to eat today. This concerns me because I just bought some fresh food yesterday and i don't want it to go bad! Going to make a salad for dinner later to use up some of my mixed greens.-
Liz Zavodsky (Ecochallenge Staff) 4/14/2018 9:31 AMOh no! Hope you are feeling better and taking care of yourself. No fun, but hopefully those fresh foods can last a few days for you.

Jessica January 4/11/2018 8:49 PMI have been eating random food in my pantry and refrigerator to get rid of it. Today I went grocery shopping, purchasing a few frozen meals and some fresh veggies and salad. I am going to attempt to eat it all before it goes bad! i always struggle with finishing the big containers of salad before it gets slimy.
