"Cannot choose. Finish everything. Don't waste food."
This is what I have been saying to my kids since Day 1 and yes, I still find myself repeating that from time to time. Still, these three kids know better than to leave anything on their plates or in their bowls because it's a no-no when it comes to food wastage in our home. It's a blessing and luxury to even be able to have food on the dining table when there are many others who are less fortunate and suffering from hunger.
So even if there is just one slice of meat, one strand of vegetables or few grains of rice left, the kids know they have to remain in their seats till they finish every last bit. Of course, they have to wash their own dishes afterwards too. #自己的事自己做
This year, we are once again pledgeing our support for the annual #CleanPlateChallenge organised by @foodfromtheheartsg.
Do you know? Food waste is a critical issue, especially since the amount of food waste generated in Singapore has increased by about 20% over the past 10 years. In the last year alone, 744,000 tonnes of food was wasted - equivalent to two bowls of rice per person a day.
You can do your part to raise awareness about food waste and promote the habit of mindful eating by supporting this meaningful campaign. From now to 16 Oct, simply finish your food, take a photo of your clean plate or takeaway box and upload it onto Instagram or Facebook with the hashtag #CleanPlateChallenge, and tag @deliveroo_sg and @foodfromtheheartsg (IG)/
Food from the Heart (Singapore) (FB).
For every submission, Deliveroo will donate S$1 to Food From The Heart, with donations totalling up to S$10,000. They
will go towards beneficiaries of Food From The Heart's School Goodie Bag programme, which focuses on providing underprivileged primary and secondary school students and their families with food rations and better nutrition.
We are definitely going to keep up this habit at home, and even when we are out, and say no to food wastage. So yup, kids, like it or not, please eat everything that Mama cooks for you. Haha. You don't have a choice so learn to be thankful for homecooked food hor. Thanks for being my little food heroes!
