Waste not
Manila Bulletin
|November 6, 2025
Yes, yes, I know, those two words in the headline should be followed by two more words: want not.
Waste not, want not. What comes to mind first and foremost when you're talking about waste? Food.
I was chatting with the supervisor of a small army of waiters who were clearing away and cleaning the tables one lunchtime at a humongous "food court" at the mall and she was shaking her head when she said, "I've seen too much food going to waste." Food unconsumed, food that the waiters said had to be disposed of immediately, as provided by law. A good law, by the way, meant to ensure that no one gets sick by accident.
