Didn't really work out for me. The candelabra and napkin kept slipping round the u-bend.

Lol...... We have such double standards in this country. I reckon that most of us would find it disgusting to eat in/on the toilet but breastfeeding mothers are often relegated to feeding their babies in restaurant toilets after some patrons complain that feeding their baby at the table is disgusting. I know hundreds of women that this has happened to...
We wouldn't eat our own meal in the toilet but we would force someone to feed a baby in there...:rolleyes::cool:

We eat lot's of leftovers and rarely have to throw any kind of food item in the trash. Grease and oil and fats get thrown out. Everything else is thrown into the compost pile or given to the chickens and guineas.

Have never heard of throwing anything into the toilet over here. I guess alot of folks have garbage disposals that grind it up and it goes into the septic system. We have a septic tank and putting food items in would cause us to have to pump it out more frequently.

Most of our left overs are given to our hens, found very little they won't eat.

It amazes me that people are disgusted by mothers breastfeeding. There is nothing disgusting about it. It's perfectly natural human behaviour but oddly somehow it has become almost on a par with pornography in this country. We are a weird lot aren't we?

Garbage disposals are not very common here and it's only the rural areas that have septic tanks. Us townies' waste goes into the main sewerage system.

My Grandad never used to throw anything away either - it all went to the pigs and chickens. Unfortunately we can't keep pigs and chickens in terraced houses. Maybe that town centre farm isn't a bad idea after all - except I think there's some rule now about not giving left over food to pigs and chickens.

The rabbits get any veg peelings but don't like leeks and spring onions! The guinea pig will eat virtually anything, I recommend one,bit like a miniature goat ! The cat is too damn fussy and will only eat cat food,unless you are having fried chicken. The rest of the waste goes in the bin if it's not recyclable; with leftover cereal I would pour milk down drain and tip rest in bin. Don't have a compost heap but my mum composts everything !

compost bin, bin, sink and drain outside is where all of mine goes.

Mind u the compost bin is getting full now and so it will all probably end up in the bin.

Eat it, because if you don't your mummy will send it to the hungry little black children in Africa.

That's intersting Rindy. We always had to eat our food so Mum wouldn't send it off to the poor starving kids in India.

Re: What do you do with your food waste?
 
I was allways told to clear my plate because there were staving Armenians ,

bit of a sidebar ...does anyone remember the "sunshine children" during the 50s, children at the Parish primary school in Gt. Harwood were given tear-out books containing photos of african children whose faces were printed in the center of a sunflower (bit like Weed on Bill and Ben) and we were instruced to go and sell them for 6d each the proceeds going to missionaries in Africa , I remember being commended for selling the most and being called to the stage during a morning assembly , all went well until I told the gathered pupils and staff my secret .......outside the Royal pub at chucking out time

:cool: :eek::cool: :eek:

Not much food goes to waist in our house. Oil or liquid goes into an empty carton or bottle n put in the bin.
Nowt goes down the loo or sink.
