No moldy leftovers?![]()

It's cupboards which have overdue stuff, rather than our refrigerator. I went to my sister's house a couple of years back when she had her op, so we did some cooking. We pulled out some herbs and stuff which had been out of date for about twenty years. In that time, she'd moved house twice and all that stuff went along with her...
My grandmother would buy a boatload of flour. When she got older, she didn't bake or make pies. So the flour sat. WORMS.It's cupboards which have overdue stuff, rather than our refrigerator.

Like a cross between grass clippings and shredded paper.
My kind of guy....
When I first met my partner of (now) 35 years....I lived in a bachelor apartment and travelled 80% of my time to the US and across Canada for projects.
I ate 99% of my meals out (which is how I met him actually).
He was trained as a chef at Culinary Institute of America.
My fridge had a jar of Dijon mustard in it. And a bottle of Teriyaki sauce. And wine.
And the dust that collects on forgotten dreams.
Which is why I like going to the store once a week. That way the produce doesn't go bad. Tomatoes will keep a couple weeks in the crisper. Apples keep longer. Lettuce doesn't keep long.Oh I cook though I do the traditional shop for meals.
I've found storing perishables and leftovers results in a lot of waste!

Most days breakfast is an apple and cottage cheese. So I'm in the crisper at least once a day.You mean the oubliette. The crisper is where vegetables go to be forgotten and rot.![]()

... I'm in the crisper at least once a day.
I can't even remember when we last had anything other than buttermilk or some cottage cheese or sour cream go bad.
I've always wondered how sour cream goes bad. Does it turn sweet?��
When I buy tomatoes, a couple go in a small bowl on the top of the fridge. The others go in the fridge. I buy the packaged salad mix (lettuce, carrots, purple cabbage) because it's far cheaper. I add green (or red if on sale) peppers and cucumbers. The bag keeps longer if you squeeze all the air out that you can. My friend ended up with a couple packages of fresh spinach, she gave me one. So I throw some of that in the salad too.I can't bring myself to refrigerate tomatoes any longer. Most of them start off without flavor, so I don't want to diminish what little they started with.
Lettuce wilted comes back well when soaked in water. I even revived three week old butterleaf just fine. As long as it does not have browning, it won't be bitter and it will restore turgor pressure.
