WHAT IS
A LEFTOVER?
The bananas turning brown in your fruit bowl. The forgotten
yogurt that’s past its Best Before. The foil-wrapped roast
veggies in your fridge.

The good news? We can all be part of the solution. By making
small changes to everyday habits, our positive impact
compounds over time. Instead of throwing out those few
pieces of extra cooked pasta, fry them up in tomorrow’s frittata.
If you open your Too Good To Go Surprise Bag to discover
five loaves of bread, convert one into a chocolatey dessert.
If you notice the Best Before date has passed on items like
a packet of crackers or a pot of yogurt, use the ‘look, smell,
taste’ test: if the food looks, smells and tastes okay (and it’s
been stored correctly) that means it’s still good to eat.
Best Before dates money, you’ll eat well, and you’ll do our planet a huge favor -
it’s a win-win-win.
