Ben Thomas, from Waitrose, says you can't go wrong by using up leftovers - but advises not to wash berries or other soft fruits before storing them
“I’m a food waste expert – and I’ve tested these TikTok “hacks” so you don’t have to.” Ben Thomas, who is an environment manager at Waitrose, claims not all viral videos are as effective as they might first appear.
He explained: “By washing soft fruit and then putting it in the fridge, the moisture can speed up the decomposition process, and it’ll quickly end up as mush. If you want to wash your food, do it before eating, rather than before storing.” “However, it’s important that supermarkets also support shoppers taking these steps – whether that’s from the sale of misshapen fruit and veg, or removing unnecessary packaging.”
When it comes to food waste videos, 36 per cent have seen content about using leftovers for soups and stocks, while 35 per cent have come across videos about turning stale bread into breadcrumbs. Ben, from Waitrose, which removed best-before dates from hundreds of fresh produce items, added: ““Best-before”, “display-by”, and “sell-by” dates can be ignored – “use-by” dates are the only labels which you need to focus on.
