Here is my waste for the week.
Broccoli that turned yellow and slimey amazingly quickly.
Cucumber that we forgot about. When we found it, it had big, soft dents. My husband said it was fine and he would cut around the bad, which is what you see in the bag, but his first bite was his last because it was all bad.
Avacado half that we didn't finish.
1/2 carton of Sour Cream. I am not really a "cream" type person. I don't care for mayonnaise, sour cream, dressing, etc. If I buy sour cream, it is for a recipe, and then inevitably the rest goes bad. I guess the lesson here is to pick several recipes with sour cream so it gets used up.
Homemade Blueberry Waffle that my husband made for breakfast 10 days ago. We ate all the rest, but then he thought I was going to eat this one, and I thought he was going to and well, now it goes to waste.

The food waste challenge has definitely made me more aware of what I'm wasting, too! Being accountable to other people really helps, because I have that same "oh no, I better eat this because I DON'T want it in my food waste picture!" feeling.
If you store your sour cream upside down in the fridge, it will keep indefinitely. Just make sure to stir it well before using.
Thanks for the tip! Hopefully it will keep sour cream out of the picture from now on.
