You want to reduce waste but don’t have a food store near you that offers unpacked goods? Then see if you can find bulk packs of the food you use most. This won’t get rid of all the waste, but one large package requires less waste than several small packages.

We use this option especially for pasta and rice. But it is also practical for other dry foods. There are also equally large containers for canned goods. Tomato paste, beans or pickles – all of these are also available in large containers. After that, it’s just a question of how big your freezer is. We always have a few large jars of tomato paste and kidney beans in our freezer. Check out a wholesaler in your area.
