Use by' dates are directed by Food Safety Standards and are designed to keep you safe. 'Best before' dates however, relate primarily to quality, so a food may be safe to eat it just may not be at its best. Use common sense and if in doubt, throw it out (into your food waste caddy of course). | Love Food Hate Waste - Scotland

We love these simple fridge pickles as a way to preserve veggies before they go bad! These quick pickles will last a couple of weeks in the fridge and would work beautifully alongside a festive cheese board. For the pickling liquid we recommend the following quantities for a 500ml jar: 160ml vinegar - we used white vinegar 125ml boiled water, left to cool for a bit 1 tsp honey 1 tsp flaked sea salt | Love Food Hate Waste - Scotland

You might not think that choosing food that's in season makes a difference to food waste, but it does! With shorter times in transit and storage, seasonal food gets to our shelves more efficiently, and less is wasted before we've even had a chance to buy it. So whether it's root veggies in wintertime, or rhubarb in the spring; remember to think seasonally when you shop. | Love Food Hate Waste - Scotland

We know that it can be overwhelming when it comes to which recycling bin is which, and it can be easy to think that everything will end up in the same place anyway! This isn't the case. Food in your general waste bin goes directly to landfill where it will either decompose and release methane or be incinerated. Unavoidable food waste, recycled through your food caddy, goes to a processing plant to be turned into energy or fertiliser – how cool is that? | Love Food Hate Waste - Scotland
