As someone whose goal is to always maximize saving and reduce wasteful spending, I need to appreciate leftovers otherwise my wallet would hurt.
Example of a time frame for how long past she'd eat something?
It can get tiring to eat the same thing, that's for sure. But I'm content with eating the same things 2-3 days in a row so long as I break up the monotony before the week's end.
Two days is overkill in many cases. Rule of thumb is 3-4 days, but it depends on what it is, how it was prepared, and how soon it was put in the refrigerator afterwards. A vegetable stew after 5 days should be fine if reheated properly. Seared tuna eaten cold out of the fridge after 5 days might result in some toilet time.
Yeah I think I have gone a similar time. But 5-7 days is usually the edge of the limit and not all food can last that long.
Absolutely not. It's a trend that a majority of people throw away their food long before it's bad. Typically, if food has gone bad you'll know by paying attention to look, smell, or taste more than just some arbitrary amount of time. For most things, two days isn't long at all.
