Make sure you understand when your food is going to expire by looking at the best if used by date (also seen as bb or best until) so you can actually use it and not wait till the last minute to figure out if its still good or bad through a sniff test... when it comes to resteraunts you need to be able to accuratley forcast consumer demand so that your shelves wont be unnecisarily overfilled and valuable food that could have went somewhere else doesnt get wasted... DONATE unused food to local food banks to give to those that need or cooperations donate any extra food that you have...Store food coherently so as to not spoil it.EVERYTHING! goes in the fridge or freezer unless it doesnt; stop being lazy and read the label...
