Just the other day my husband Jaime and I were cleaning out the fridge frustrated at all the produce and food we were throwing away because it had gone bad. We had every intention of eating it but then of course life happens or your forget about it. We do try to eat healthy and Jaime uses a lot of fresh ingredients in his cooking so we often have fresh produce on hand but unfortunately sometimes it does go to waste. I'm also notorious for going to the grocery store and thinking we don't have a vegetable but turns out we do so now we have tons of that certain vegetable.
