RE: When Life Gives You Rotten Apples You Make.....
Its true! We need to get over out food aversions as a culture. There is so much food that gets thrown out because its not "perfect". You don't notice it when you eat it, and the extra work is fine because it's free. It also feels good to make something good out of waste. Its a gold mine to me too, funny its all how you look at things. Thank you so much for stopping by! Nice to know another deer apple applesauce maker!
You're welcome - hey, those deer apples are too good to waste. We also go shopping at a local store that often sells off food right on top of it's expiration date and sometimes past it. There is a lot of food that's perfectly fine for a very long time after it supposedly expires, though my husband did find out the hard way that mayonnaise is actually not one of them. We have these comical discussions where I say, "Hey, if it's a box a graham crackers we'd know if they'd gone bad but mayonnaise...maybe not so much." And he says, "Well, it looks fine and smells fine. I think we'll be okay."
He's been more cautious since the mayo incident. So have I.
I really like those stores, we need more of them. I have had a few lessons with food as well, you live you learn. Thanks for the share, its nice to hear from people who are trying to use some of the waste as well. Cheers!
