Food Waste Avoidance 7 - Food Waste

Why?What do we define as “Food Waste”?

Food waste is food that is thrown away when it could have been eaten.

Food waste results from preparing and cooking food. It is the food we throw in the bin, we feed to our pets or toss in the compost or worm farm. It's the food we bought to eat but then threw away.

There are two types of Food Waste:


Unavoidable food waste
  • Food waste that cannot usually be eaten e.g. pineapple skins, tea bags and fruit and vegetable peelings It is the food waste we cannot really do anything further with apart from composting it or putting it in the bin.
Avoidable food waste
  • Food that is wasted because we buy more than we need.
  • Food that goes out of date before we use it.
  • Food that is wasted because we cooked more than we need.
Avoidable food waste is often starchy foods (sliced bread, cooked rice and pasta), meat and dairy products.

The Bose Soundbar 700 Won't Connect to App

Bose has one of the best speaker sound. I learnt about Bose more than 25 years ago and still a fan.  I bought Soundbar 700 in 2018.  It took me a while to set it up but it has been giving me troubles once a while.  Recently, I was not able to connect Soundbar 700 with my phone.  Done the factory reset on the soundbar, it didn't work. I spent hours reseting everything multiple times and finally I found this article,  https://www.bose.com.au/en_au/support/articles/HC1380/productCodes/bose_soundbar_700/article.html .  Tweaking them all and finally got it to work again. I think the most important setting is to TURN WPS OFF on the router!  Hope it helps.
