...if you live in Herefordshire or Worcestershire.
Householders are to be visited by officials offering advice on cooking with leftovers, in a Government initiative to reduce the amount of food that gets thrown away.
In an initial seven-week trial, eight officials will call at 24,500 homes, dishing out advice and recipes. The officials, each of whom has received a day's training, will paid up to £8.49 an hour, with a bonus for working on Saturdays. The scheme will initially cover six council areas in Worcestershire and Herefordshire.

If there are leftovers they are being fed too much.
We throw VERY LITTLE food away

That's a load of old cr@p for a start.
A 32in CRT, the biggest available, would use 322kWh.
Must be a 36 inch foot spa my parents have in their living room then. ;)

One of the real problems is the introduction of the "use by" date. It means that tonnes of perfectly edible food is lobbed, merely because of a label. Remember that there a large "safety" margin built in to these dates but it has had the effect of instilling fear into most people, who believe that eating a pie that's been in the fridge for one day longer than the label says will cause immediate food poisoning.

There is a difference between 'use by' and 'best before' but i can never remember what it is :(

A few years as a single parent teaches you what can be made into a soup so i don't need some wet behind the ears pillock who's just watched a training video to tell me sh*te. He / she would'nt get a warm welcome at my door. They'll be telling us who to wipe our bums at this rate.
Surely this wage could employ a nurse/teacher/police officer?
