Ever stared into your fridge and thought, “Who the heck bought all these veggies?” 🙄 Only to remember it was you, in a burst of health-kick enthusiasm. Well, it’s time to channel that energy into something even more awesome: cutting down on food waste. 🌍🍔 Turns out, we’re throwing away food like it’s 1999.
