3 \/ Don’t throw away, reinvent recipes<\/h2>\n

Before throwing food away, think about what you could invent with it. It is not a question of using outdated products, but to revive the cooking of our grandmothers<\/b>, when with a stew, they ate three days. <\/p>\n

Another option would be to donate your leftover food<\/b> to organizations that work with people without means, such as soup kitchens and homeless shelters. <\/p>\n

4 \/ Promotes responsible consumption<\/h2>\n

It creates menus that are aware of the overexploitation of resources, works with suggestions, seasonal products and KM.0<\/b> that motivate responsible consumption of our food, favor the reduction of aggressive cultivation and stimulate local business.<\/p>\n
