In the Kitchen
The Circular Economy, starring stale bread If you are absolutely sick of the sight of the bread and can’t bear it being in your kitchen a moment longer, perhaps take inspiration from what we do here at The Urban Co-op with any bread that doesn’t sell (even though this is a rare enough occurrence - bread sells!). We do our best to dispose consciously of any and all waste that we create. In the case of bread, some suppliers return and collect it and bring it away with them (there are myriad uses for leftover bread in the food industry). In the cases where this doesn’t happen, we place the leftover loaves into a dedicated food waste bin, which is then donated to some of our suppliers who use it in the feed that goes to their pigs! So, even old bread can be an example of one of the core facets of our mission at The Urban Co-op: hopefully providing inspiration for what a functioning circular economy can look like. In fact, repurposing of something old into something new will be the topic for next month’s zero waste tip, so keep your eyes peeled for next month’s newsletter if this is a topic that interests you!
