Another day, another supermarket announces that it is scrapping use-by dates to reduce food waste No stranger to mouldy yoghurt, morris_sophie looks at how to make the most of elderly food ⬇️
Biscuits and crisps may have gone soft or stale and lost their taste and texture, but you could still bash up biscuits to use as a cheesecake base or as an ice cream topping, and soft crisps will work in a speedy cheat’s tortilla.Most supermarkets have focused on tackling best before dates, with M&S, Sainsbury’s, Waitrose and Asda taking best before stamps off hundreds of fresh product lines, a move Tesco began back in 2018.
Potatoes, our most wasted food, can be saved in a few ways. Dig out any sprouting bits and slice into chunks, making sure to discard any green or brown parts. Use these either for mash or a soup base. It’s tempting to chuck anything in the freezer, but will need to be eaten or thrown away one day. Try and freeze in usable portions, for example handfuls of herbs, or a few sausages so you don’t have to defrost the whole pack.
The main issue is quality – the fibres will break down and your meat will not taste good if frozen for years on end. My freezer is also full of loose vegetables, but they don’t all emerge tasting great. If you’re worried about this, don’t make the older ingredients the stars of your meal.
