The holiday season is the time of year when the most food is wasted. This is due to various reasons such as households cooking too much food, and leftover food eventually going to waste. When cooking a large meal such as Thanksgiving, it is important to correctly estimate the amount of food needed for the meal. Being mindful about menus, shopping, and the way that food is stored can help to alleviate some food waste during the holiday season. The “Guest-Imator” is a useful tool that people can use to estimate how much food they need to make based on the number of people coming to their meal!
