How to not waste food
In today’s world, we have the tendency to mistakenly waste food. We do this by overbuying products that aren’t needed, buying products that expire in a short time that we do not consume in timely manner, and not consuming products already bought because of pure laziness to prepare it. It is important to realize these simple mistake and try to fix them. We can try modifying our lives by making a grocery list before going to the grocery store, using leftovers, and if there are domestic animals living in our homes the scraps could be given to them.
Making a grocery list before shopping is very helpful in trying to not waste food. This is because if we make a list before going to the grocery store, we will buy what we need instead of over buying products that are still to be consumed in our homes. Another reason that making a list before grocery shopping is important is so we will not forget what we need.
Next it is important to try to make new dishes out of leftovers. This is important because perhaps if enough food left over is enough, a person could easily eat that instead of cooking something else. This way a person saves time, energy, and money. It is also a satisfaction knowing that the food wasn’t wasted.
Giving scraps to a domestic animal is another way food goes unwasted. Any hungry animal would love extra food. If it is healthy for the animal and not wanted by the human, why not give any scraps left over to the animal? For example if a person has a dog any meat scraps could be given to the dog.
If people try and make the effort in making these small changes, then less food would be wasted. If a person makes a simple grocery list before going grocery shopping, prepares leftovers from the night before, and gives unwanted scraps to their beloved pet, there would be less of a food waste problem and fewer people hungry in the world

I find the first and the third advice very interesting and easily to do it at home but I don't understand the second one. I didn't know about the children and it's horrible. I will try to do this advice. I had a rabbit and I gave to her rest of vegetables and we didn't wast vegetables. Like we are a big family, we paid very attention to don't waste and we did big quantity. When there was too much food, we trough it. So thanks for this advices.
