    Luckily, it's zero-waste week at my job so my goal for the challenge is to cook one zero-waste meal using whole organic foods. I decided that this meal would either be my lunch or my dinner so I've planned ahead and planned out what my meals would be for the week. I then would grab exactly what I need from the grocery store and bulk buying anything that is not produce. I've already bulk bought things in the past but I haven't made it a regular thing so I'm excited that this challenge has pushed me to be more mindful of the bulk section. The other day I wanted a snack so I grabbed a produce bag from my bag and grabbed a snack from the bulk section!

      Good luck with zero waste week.  This is going to be quite challenging, no doubt.  Meal planning is essential. I've learned this along the way with my challenge.  If I don't have fresh, unpackaged fruits and veggies around, I have only food that produces waste.  Ughh!  BTW, great idea getting your produce bag and getting a snack from the bulk section.  I can do this as well- easy enough!
