Tomorrow's bread for me is Sainsbury's "Taste the Difference" Kalmata (sic) Olive bread reduced from £1.69 to 49p. Hopefully full of fat to keep it fresh!<br /><br />And like you, I chuck anything uneaten or inedible onto the compost to help grow next year's stuff. <br /><br />Paragraph three is awesome.

It worked quite well and just baked bread is really nice but the bread would go stale very quickly so you had to eat it straight away.Stonygroundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16564192847660157500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-41955834796725753152012-03-27T11:56:02.072+01:002012-03-27T11:56:02.072+01:00Freegan sounds like an Irish clan.

He's kidding isn'...20p for a loaf of bread? He's kidding isn't he? The cheapest I've seen recently is £1.25 and unlike some people the majority of us don't have the time to stand around baking bread whenever we fancy some cheese on toast. So I developed a system whereby I go to work for which I get some pieces of paper which I then exchange for bread from a nice lady who works as a baker.<br /><br />Any which may be left long enough to go mouldy is not put in the rubbish but in the compost heap, which then fertilises my garden allowing it to grow other foodstuffs. Contrary to what you may have heard on the Beeb food does not disappear leaving a gaping hole in reality when thrown out, it may even feed a few birds an worms you greenies seem to value more than us humans.<br /><br />Oh, and I never really respected my bread even when I made it that one time, I only told it that I did to get it into bed (bacon sarnies for breakfast if you're mind suddenly leapt to a smutty conclusion - one track minds some of you!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-27936318177769593602012-03-27T10:53:53.879+01:002012-03-27T10:53:53.879+01:00"Have respect for what you're consuming&q..."Have respect for what you're consuming", urges man who rummages in bins for his dinner.
