Just now thinking about my parents yelling at me and my siblings for eating all of the groceries they just bought when I was a teen and how it's actually made me waste more food as an adult bc I buy things and only use part before stowing the rest away bc I feel like if I eat everything within like a week it means I'm a greedy savage and I don't have any respect for the things I consume.

#anntics #like. in retrospect. of course a family of seven will consume a ''family size'' package of anything in a couple of days #if you have 5 kids and a 16 pack of toaster pastries and each kid eats one per day... I mean c'mon #of course you're going to find only one pastry left on the morning of the fourth day #IT'S FOOD.... #I feel crazy for not realizing this until now I'm still weird about eating food I buy #I feel less terrible throwing away expired inedible food than I do eating all of something I just bought #this is only for packaged ready-to-eat things and like. snacks. throwing away leftover cooked food makes me about equally upset #there's no real point to me posting this btw. just jotting this down in my journal to get it out of my head #and now I can go finish loading the dishwasher
