Sustainable Kitchen: Reduce Food Waste with Smart Route-Sorting in the Store

How many wilted vegetables do you throw away every week?

Throwing away food is bad for both your wallet and the environment. But in a busy modern life, it's far too easy to lose track. You might buy yet another bag of carrots because you didn't remember there were three left at the bottom of the fridge drawer, or you get tempted by 3-for-2 offers on items you actually can't manage to finish before they go bad.

Chaotic shopping lists – or the lack thereof – are the main cause of household food waste.
