Last year, prob threw out >$120 of food b/c I let it go bad before cooking.
Moving now. Took about $60 worth of stuff out of my fridge and dumped it down the drain, then recycled the bottles.
I feel the waste, and the guilt from it.

Go to one of those hipster stores where it's just barrels of flour and beans and shit. Bring your own jars and voila

I tend to buy only what I know I'm going to eat for dinner and for breakfast and lunch for the next day. that and I only cook enough for myself since I live alone. And only have company over once or twice a week.

Shop more than once a week and purchase less at each shop. Eat the older stuff before the newer stuff.

Kinda figured answers would fall along these lines.
Going to the store 2-3 times a week seems like a waste of time and gas, but I guess if the alternative is throwing out food, its probably a save in the long run.
