I can't stand waste. I am my mother's daughter. She kept scraps of vegetables in a container in the freezer until she had enough for soup, and sent leftovers in our school lunches, even though it wasn't cool. (But it was delicious, which taught me that not worrying about what was cool often resulted in ... a pretty great lunch.) She cut the brown bits off fruit and made it into salad rather than throw it away because we kids thought it was rotten. She composted and recycled before it was cool to do so in our suburban neighborhood.
My mother would have loved the new legislation in France targeting food waste. She would have also said, "Well, that's just common sense."
