Bread that lasts for 60 days could cut food waste

[grahamw48]

There is NO food wasted in my house.

Extra bread goes in the freezer.

Actually I bought a massive bag of those little soup bread roll things ('Pan de sal' in the Phils) for about 15p on the reduced shelf...ate a few and then froze the rest (about 20 of them left).

Now normally you revive such things in a proper oven, but I thought I'd just give some a couple of mins in the microwave, and have to say...they came out perfect. Fresh-tasting and crunchy on the outside.

Also I buy toasty loaves from the 'reduced' shelf every week for freezing, and then straight into the toaster as and when needed. Perfect toast.

No excuse for chucking food out when you have a freezer.

We do the same thing too here..not just bread but even rice and my Filipino dishes..If in case we fail to put the rest of the bread in freezer, the birds would be having a feast. I don't think it's a waste though as other living creatures would eat it Although I find it funny that these animals don't eat rice, when back in the Philippines, birds, cats, dogs, rats, etc. would..haha

I always feed the birds in my garden throughout the winter, and also have a big birdbath for them that I make sure is kept clear of ice. Our little friends need all the help they can get .
