To keep berries fresh, place them on top of a paper towel in a sealed container to absorb excess moisture and reduce chances of molding. I will properly store 2 packs of berries.

I will take a fridge and pantry inventory to stay up to date with what I have at home before I go grocery shopping.

I will scale down the recipe of a meal to make just the right amount for my household of 3 so we eat everything up.

I will only purchase the items on my grocery list and avoid impulse purchases.

I will buy loose produce with a reusable bag or food from the bulk section to get the exact quantity I need.

I will track the food that my household of 3 throws out so I can learn what we're wasting and why.

I will share a Save The Food social media post or other information about food waste and the actions I am taking.

I will learn about food labels and not throw food out just based on the date on the package, but instead check the smell and color to see if it has gone bad.

I will watch 3 videos or documentaries to learn about the scope and scale of food waste in this country.

I will talk to 4 family members or friends about my experience with this challenge, food waste, and what I have learned.
