Solving the Food Expiration Problem

Solving the Food Expiration Problem

By Bri L

You buy your items at the store and after you store them away you either forget about them completely or forget long enough that they expire. Then you have to throw these items out and you waste money. To start you should go through the items you already have and check all of their dates.

Here are some helpful ways to find out if your food items have gone bad besides by the expiration date. Items that are considered dairy such as milk, eggs, yogurt, and sour cream expire quickly while other dairy products such as cheese and butter last much longer. They may have gone bad it will not harm you to have them. For canned items look at the shape of the can. If it has changed the product has most likely gone bad. For boxed items such as cereal, you can tell if it has gone bad by the stale taste it will have. To tell if fruit or vegetable items have gone bad it is best to use smell and inspect them.

I have a few more solutions below:

Make a meal plan. So I know it can be difficult but this will save you a lot of time, money, and it is easier to stay on a healthy diet. Now I mention meal planning multiple times on my website because it is so important!. Remember to stay healthy with your meals and you can find them on Pinterest, a website where you can search very specifically such as "easy crockpot meal" or "healthy breakfast snack" and it will give you hundreds of options for recipes. Once you put this in your Sunday night routine it can be easy to do.

Keep a list. After you have done your grocery shopping or hopefully you have received your delivery, as you are putting your items away make a list of things that expire. Another good idea on your list is to add when you made your meals so you can try to eat your leftovers within a week. Put this list somewhere you will see it. As you use items you can cross them off. I suggest making this list after every trip to the grocery store for best results.

Grab your sharpie. If you do not like the list idea this can be helpful in knowing when things expire. As your putting your items away label with a sharpie your items with the date they expire. The expiration date can be small and difficult to read. You should make sure that when you write on the item the date is facing the front so you actually see it when you open the fridge. On your Tupperware, you can write the date of when you made the meal and it will watch off in the dishwasher after a few washes if you feel comfortable with that. I hope these solutions help!

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
