How to Give Food a Second Life: What to Do When the Expiry Date Is Coming to an End

You're unlikely to be able to save spoiled meat, but you can give fruits, vegetables, and cheese a second chance.

Use common sense when rescuing food.

Carefully assess the condition of the food, and if there is a strong unpleasant smell, then feel free to throw it in the trash.

We suggest you figure out what types of food products can be saved.

What food can be reanimated

Here are some examples.

1. Fruits and vegetables. Shriveled apples, cucumbers, carrots and even tomatoes can be placed in a container with water and a little salt added.
2. Greens: Place tired greens in a bowl with cold water and lemon juice – leave the container in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
3. Cheese. You can soak it in warm milk for 1.5 hours.
4. Bread and pastries: Wrap in a paper napkin and microwave for a couple of minutes.
