Hi! I agree that leftover waste needs to be alleviated and it just gets worse as the kids get older and eat ever more. It's hard to gauge how much you'll need and you want them full at dinner so there isn't anyone rummaging around in the fridge late at night. It is a shame things get shoved to the back or forgotten but, I think everyone does that, unfortunately. Maybe if refrigerators were only a foot deep instead of what they are... If you have a few friends who are also looking for leftover relief, consider making your dinner and packing half of it or the leftovers up and trading them with your friends...or double wrapping them for storage in the freezer for those I don't feel like cooking nights. I'm still trying to figure the leftover thing out and it seems like an issue not to be solved this century.
