"The gift of God to this enlightened age is the knowledge of the oneness of mankind and of the fundamental oneness of religion. War shall cease between nations, and by the will of God the Most Great Peace shall come; the world will be seen as a new world, and all men will live as brothers."
Abdu'l-Baha1

"O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord."
Bahá’u’lláh2

How much do you know about food waste in your country? Spend some time researching this issue and share a fact you learned. How conscious of your access to food are you and in what ways can you be more responsible for reducing your own food waste?

#2070140 by Prosperous Snow celebrating Author IconMail Icon

My experience with the prevention of food waste is on a more personal level. As a Senior Citizen, living on a fixed income, I have to get part of my monthly food from food banks. Fortunately, there is a Senior Citizens commodities program that gives anyone over 60, who needs it, two bags of food a month. These bags include canned goods, milk, cheese, cereal, and some type of canned meat. In addition to the Commodities program, there are food banks that take donations from supermarkets and other places that sell to the public. I know that Starbucks donates some of the food they do not sell to the food banks.

One of the grocery stories has "Manger's Specials" on meat that is close to the sell by date. The price is cut in half. Another supermarket has buy one and get one free on items that are close to the sell by date. One thing I have learned about the "sell by date" is that many food items, especially canned goods, do not spoil if the sell by date is past. The sell by date, on canned goods, appears (to me) to be the day they taste best when used by, and after that date they are still editable.
