I would love to see a video talking about things you don’t buy anymore, that you miss buying/having/using. If there is anything lol

@luisaah5707 3 года назад

That's a good one. I miss most Asian items such as tofu and dumplings. It is sooo hard to buy plastic free things in Asian supermarkets. I am looking for a replacement for cornflour Harina pan for arepas and empanadas.

@Blue-pb7kz 3 года назад

Tupperware makes sense to me if you're commuting a lot and working/studying outside of home. I don't use it now, but glass is heavy, metal isn't microwavable, and if you're spending 2+ hours in transportation carrying a heavy computer and books already, it makes a difference! Idk where I'm going with this exactly, maybe just to say that a lot of sustainability influencers don't seem to have to deal with those sorts of things (9-5 jobs, long commutes, etc) and that makes things easier. I might be getting it wrong tho!

@kaylinoak 3 года назад

I work an office job and I take my food in glass jars and beeswax wraps. (And I pack a LOT of food) Although getting used to it was strange, now I love it. Sometimes my backpack is a little full, but it isn’t that difficult

@Gittemary 3 года назад

When I commute I used glass jars, but it’s completely fine if some else suits you, again this is just my personal opinion. I also show this in my videos, but as most of my intros and tally videos like this take place in the same location, I guess one can easily get the idea that rarely move around, but I do haha 😅 In a week I can work in 5 different cities. Anyway, sometimes we do a lot more than we show on camera 😅✌️

@flanya88 3 года назад

I have collapsible silicone containers. They're awesome because once I'm done, I can fold it up, and they take up very little room. The particular ones I have can also go in the freezer, microwave, and oven. You can even take it out of the freezer and put it straight into the oven! But I don't think most are like that

@annas.8113 3 года назад

I generally use glass containers and jars to store food. I love having food in glass in my fridge, it is much easier for me to see what is where. I do own 4 plastic tupperware, which I used for lunch when I was biking to work. Now I use them for my sons snacks for kindergarten or trips. It is easier and safer this way, and I use what I have

@seanaghbyrne3401 3 года назад

I'm not sure if this is helpful but I know exactly how you feel as I work part time and im in college full time so I'm only home when im sleeping I picked up an Wheat Fibre EcoBox from an Irish company but you might be able to get them from where you're from. 😊

@lydiaharris911 3 года назад

Just found this on google, "The nonstick coating is made from a chemical called PTFE, also known as Teflon, which makes cooking and washing up fast and easy. ... However, Teflon has been PFOA-free since 2013. Today's nonstick and Teflon cookware is completely safe for normal home cooking, as long as temperatures do not exceed 570°F (300°C)". Not trying to cause an argument, just trying to help provide facts. Hope this helps!

@Gittemary 3 года назад

While teflon has been PTFE free for a while, lots of people still have pots and pans bought prior to 2013, and while sensible cooking practices can easily prevent temperatures of 300+ the fumes caused by that reaching can lead to migraines, breathing issues and fevers, so I just choose to go around it, especially as the alternative is so easy to use as well 😅✌️🌿

@lydiaharris911 3 года назад

Oh yeah! Definitely the pans before 2013! And I didn’t even know about this beforehand. Thank you for bringing it to my attention 😁

@monyscell8352 3 года назад

As a alternative to Teflon there's a ceramic coating that's white and you can use wooden spoons which I think most people have, or should have, and as I understand it, it's a healthier alternative and it works great - just don't stir too fast because the food will slide around like crazy it's that good.. lol. Just thought I'd share this because for some people giving up non stick cookware is hard. The upside too is that you won't mistake it because of the white colour so if you wanted to switch over you'll always be able to tell any Teflon pans from the ceramic coated. ;-) Hope this helps! :)

@smirbelbirbel 3 года назад

@@Gittemary PTFE is the actual name of the brand-name Teflon. ;-) What we don't like is the PFOA, which is a certain kind of acid. PTFE is very inert. It is a plastic of course, but if you have a high quality set I would go for the default "use what you have" kind of policy. I think telling people that Teflon is toxic is not correct and leads to people needlessly throwing away good kitchenware.

In Sweden companies have to write out how to recycle and sort the packaging. This means that you can always read on the packaging if there is plastic with the product. I don’t know how other countries have it, but that’s how it is in Sweden

Microwavable meals use to be called TV dinners back in the day lol. It seemed like such an "amazing" thing to have Salisbury steak and potatoes made immediately in the microwave or oven and have family meals or individual meals. And as the name suggests you take it to the livingroom to watch TV. Seemed like such a convenience at the time and now with these Lean Cruisine and Weight Watchers etc but as you said either crazy processed or full of salt/sugar (or you're still hungry) . I'd rather just meal prep my own and freeze them. At least then I know what I'm putting in my body. Thanks for the tips!

@AnnikaWithAk 3 года назад

I buy frozen sweet corn, brussels sprouts and peas and I know it comes in plastic bags which can be open and sealed. When they're empty I'd just reuse them to freeze other food as much as possible. But I haven't found frozen veggies in cardboard boxes yet. Whenever I go to the supermarket I usually browse the reduced section first and would buy veggies and lettuce there which comes on plastic. But I think it's better to buy these reduced food in order to avoid them going to the bin. And unfortunately that's a supermarket where the bins are locked outside and not accessible for dumpster diving. If I buy food that is not reduced then I always choose the unwrapped veggies and foods.

@Marcobunny 3 года назад

Some veggies freeze well or can be frozen after being blanched (I think that's what its called?)

@anaalves3658 Год назад

I have a dozen cupcake silicone molds, I don't remember why I bought them because I don't bake, but they are excellent as little serving dishes for kids. I use them for berries and other small snacks for my daughter and her friends ☺️.

Kitchen tupperware and other plastic containers can be upcycled as organisers in drawers and cupboards, even in the fridge to corral little jars, or in a wardrobe for smaller items. For stationery, tools, sewing kits, hobby material, accessories, etc. I've done this many times especially with old ones which I suspect cannot be recycled.

I was so confused for a second when you said baking sheets lol. I’ve always heard the actual pan called that and it is of course made of metal, on the rare occasion we used liner it was parchment paper or aluminum until mom got two of those mats you mentioned. Totally agree about rice, the only time to use boil bags is while camping and even then it depends on the situation. I have also always hated cleaning sponges and use clothes and steel wool instead.

@kyleeblose3677 3 года назад

With the complaints of not having something to cover, there's a few recipes that the top will cook too fast/burn before the bottom is done. Easy response: use a dish that has a glass lid. It's what I do.

I would love a video on how you use your cast iron and stainless steel! I have some, but everything stick to those :/

@palomanyoka1343 3 года назад

I've use stainless steel for seering. It tends to "grab" onto the meat and then release when it finished searing. I don't know too much else though as I haven't used the stainless steel pan often as I don't eat meat often.

@ciannacoleman5125 3 года назад

If food is sticking to your cast iron you are doing one of a few things wrong (or multiple): Is your pan properly seasoned? Plenty of videos out there about how to care for the seasoning; Are you preheating your pan? (Important for all pans but especially cast iron); Are you using enough oil/butter/grease? You can’t just throw food in without some sort of fat to help it cook and prevent the charging that causes it to stick; Are you letting your food cook properly? If you are doing all the above right then you might not be waiting long enough to try to turn your foods, when your food is cooked enough on a properly seasoned pan it will naturally release from the bottom and be easy to flip. Hope that helps

@Szynszula 2 года назад

I agree with everything but not with the teflon. It is toxic but only when its surface is damaged. To use Steel or similar frying pan you need to use much more Oil, which is not Good for health (info from dietetician). I use mostly wooden stuff to fry on frying pan for almost a year and it doesnt have even one scratch, so it is safe unlless you use metal on it

@chiakit1465 3 года назад

There is a dish that we cook that needs aluminium foil to wrap fish for "grilling" instead of foil we use banana leaves as a cheaper alternative. I don't think it imparts that much flavor in the dish but feel free to try banana leaf on foods that need foil if banana leaves are available to you. And it can also be used as like a mat for iron when ironing clothes if you accidentally bought had extra. Don't exactly know why I think it makes ironing clothes easier and makes clothes shinier? I grew up with it and never bothered to ask why.

@allieennis2310 2 года назад

I'm curious what would be a better alternative to plastic cotnainers if you're someone who packs lunches everyday? I have glassware and use it but it's very heavy when I take more than one cotnainer (I.e lunch and snackor sauce on the side, etc). I know steel is lighter but has such a big environmental impact and cannot be heated up if food needs microwaved. Anyone have good ideas here?

@sophia_koa 3 года назад

Hej, Gittemary! Yesterday I was in Lidl and I saw they had a W5 cleaning kit that used tabs that came in a cardboard box and dissolve in water. The kit contained plastic spray bottles, but I am also sure they sell the tabs separately. I am not the biggest fan of cleaning with vinegar, so I thought I might give them a go.

When you say baking sheet, are you meaning what Americans call parchment paper? It comes on a roll in a box (like plastic food wrap does) and you just cut off strips as needed. Not sure if that’s what you meant. When I hear “baking sheet” I think of the metal sheet pans that you put in the oven, but you said disposable when referencing them so I don’t think we’re thinking the same thing😂

Eh, I'm scrolling down and nobody talking about it. Are we classic trilogy Star Wars fans that out of fashion?

You shouldn’t cover salty food with aluminium foil at all, because the salt and the aluminium can react in an unhealthy way for you to eat :) so not that much of a loss !

The baking sheets thing made no sense to me, who uses a disposable sheet on their baking pan? Why not just put the food on the pan? Whenever I make cookies they just go directly on the greased stainless steel pan and there's no need for anything else.

FRUGALITY is a more appropriate title for this sort of vid 'Things I don't t buy anymore' than 'Zero Waste'. Felt like I was watching a primary school Show and Tell, with a talking head throughout and unnecessary dramatic overkill Lol, instead of SHOWING the stuff. Lazy vid. Alot of POOR RU-vidrs try to disguise lack of funds as Minimalism, Saving the Earth, Zero Waste, etc. and the frugal folks lap it up! Lol Eating out is the ultimate zero waste option if you have the funds, as restaurants, esp the environmentally friendly ones, are experts at buying in bulk so avoid packaging, using even expensive ingredients economically to minimise cost and maximize profits, use leftover ingredients for 'chef tecommendations' or 'specials', etc. etc. Yet this person disses takeouts coz she can't afford decent ones that are made with healthy ingredients and packaged in an environmentally friendly way. If you have the money, you can live zero waste comfortably with an EMPTY kitchen while helping the economy and retaining jobs.
