Sustainable food: make it a habit

I've made my own top 10 on how you can make your meal more sustainable. Now, I'm going to apply this on my pasta.

1. This is easy, just look on your packages if it comes from your country or go buy product by your local farmer (if there is one ofcourse).

2. Go buy your supplies in your local fair trade shop, every city has one these days.

3. "Food's true cost" is actually almost the same as buying fair trade.

4. Try new food's, new product -> your local product, you probably have never bought products at the farm.

5. Of course is wasting less hard, but just insert a "leftovers day".

6. This will probably be hard at first, you'll have to do research on the certified stadards and then figure out which are credible.

7. If you buy at your local farm, or if you have your own little garden, you have no chose but seasonal products -> https://www.wikihow.com/Season-Pasta

8. Your own little garden, it takes time and you have to learn about it, but this "corona-season" is perfect to start your own little garden.

9. You might think this is stupid, but if you ask for the "ugly" fruits and veggies, there will be less waste in the shops.

10. This one is easy, just bring your own pouches for fruit and veggies and buy full crops.

    We find this topic very interesting. Many possibilities, we did not know yet. The topic has gained a lot of importance in the present time. We think that we must implement these measures.

    Hi Carolien!

    We really like your project idea and you already have a great plan.

    We think it would be more interesting if you choose a complete menue that includes vegetables, fruits and different food products.
    Maybe beginn with salade, main course and a dessert.

    Keep going!
    Kevin and Tamara

    Very nice topic! I think sustainable food is something that becomes more and more important and something we should all consider to do (change our habits of eating and where to consume). Can‘t wait to hear and see more of your project idea! Smile
