Walt Longmire Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I'm making a meat loaf tonight with moose I killed and butchered myself. Raspberry pie for desert. Grew the raspberries. If I kill it or grow it, I HATE to see it go to waste. Seldom does that ever happen. First of all, the meat I kill is fresh and not already aged when I buy it, so it can sit thawed in the refer for a long time and still be good. Same after it's been cooked. I think most people are too far removed from their food or they wouldn't be so wasteful. Even in the city you can grow some of your own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWARREN123 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I do not waste food and dislike to see people do so. I grew up very poor and we barely had enough to eat most days and while in the Army there were many times food was not available so I hate food waste! My wife is Korean and she also grew up very poor with not enough to eat most times. Everything gets eaten at our house, cook just enough or when dining out order only what you can eat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 My wife cooks a lot. And she always makes extra. I work 4 days a week. She cooks for me 3 days with enough for leftovers at work for 3/4 days a week. Usually one day a week I’ll grab food on the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt Longmire Posted August 22, 2018 Author Share Posted August 22, 2018 When I cook it is usually enough to last a couple days. Leftovers are good, and can be made into something else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valmet Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Sometimes I’ll put together a recipe- make a bunch and eat it a few days out of the week, particularly in the colder months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazy R Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I like having leftovers handy in the fridge. If I run the Kamado I cook up enough meat to eat several meals. Wintertime big pots of chili or beef barley soup. Just one of me so cooking just enough for one meal is kinda pointless unless it’s quick and simple. almost nothing gets thrown out. I eat a fair amount of wild game too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
