I'm fed up of rotten fruit and veg!

I freely admit I would be healthier if I ate more fresh fruit and veg. But over the last few months that's become increasingly difficult... because a significant fraction of what I buy rots or goes mouldy before I can eat it all. 

 

I HATE throwing away food. So I'm just going to have to give up buying some things. Like strawberries. Every punnet I've bought recently had at least one mouldy/squishy one hidden in it, no matter how carefully I looked at it in the shop. Every. Single. One. Doesn't matter if I purchased it at the corner shop, or the local fruit & veg shop, or the Morrisons or Aldi near work, or get it from the big Tesco or the little Tesco in person or order online. 

 

And if I buy strawberries on Monday, there's absolutely no chance of saving them to eat on Wednesday. Even Tuesday is a bit too late. Tomatoes are almost as bad. Carrots and cucumbers used to be immune, but not recently.

 

I don't have the time or energy to go to the shops every day to buy fruit and veg (plus the local veg shop only takes cash, and the corner shop's selection is a bit erratic). Bloody 'just in time' supply chains are the bane of healthy eating.
