A Fusion of Flavors: The Cultural Footprint of What We Eat and Don’t Eat
Ever wondered how cultural traditions influence our perception of what we deem “edible” and our utilization of food resources? "We are what we eat" is an age-old saying that highlights the profound impact our culinary decisions have on our lives - what, why, how, where, and when we eat all varies across cultures, serving as expressions of identity, social bonds, beliefs, heritage, and more. Come on a journey as we explore how diverse cuisines worldwide ingeniously optimize food scraps, leftovers, and less desirable ingredients. You’ll discover the wisdom behind naturally low-waste diets and eating habits and glean insights for minimizing food waste. Let's explore the rich tapestry of culinary heritage for valuable lessons that can help us build a more sustainable future where no food goes to waste.

Yes, I agree we are not competing with each other and yet, others in reality are not following this thinking.
Funding is going to the wrong people and not those doing the actual work. Politics and gov and those big gig companies are taking the money to hire for their infrastructure that is not doing much. Food banks is monopolying which limits access to food by the boutique food recovery. And all the apps companies are taking on what others have already to develop instead of creating new donors.
