Irish households waste over €20 worth of food after every BBQ or picnic

Irish families waste over €20 worth of food after every BBQ or picnic, a new survey has found. Summer is the peak season for food waste, with 52 per cent of Irish households saying they are most likely to go overboard with food that gets uneaten in the hotter months. Some 32 per cent report tossing out leftovers from BBQs and picnics, with salad being the most commonly wasted item. According to a survey conducted by One Poll for Too Good To Go, over half of respondents throw out leafy veg after dining Al-fresco. Out of 1,000 adults across the country, 61 per cent cited overestimating how much food they need as the primary cause of waste. In order to reduce waste, shoppers are encouraged to buy with realistic portion sizes in mind and track what gets eaten to improve future shopping. Freezing leftovers and getting creative with cooking is also a great way to use up any uneaten food. Too Good To Go partners with supermarkets and restaurants including Aldi, SuperValu, SPAR and Offbeat doughnuts. Through its app, customers can buy surprise bags from these stores for a discounted price. This allows food businesses to sell their leftover stock at the end of the day and eliminate waste. Speaking about the survey, Machaela O'Leary, sales manager at Too Good To Go Ireland, said: "Summer is a time to enjoy great food and company, but it's also when many households unknowingly waste food and money. "With an average of over €20 being thrown away after each BBQ or picnic, there's a real need to plan smarter. Using tools like Too Good To Go to rescue surplus food can help families enjoy summer meals without the guilt." Avid user of Too Good To Go Jackie Beecher, from Cork, said the experience inspires how she shops and plans meals. She said: "Since I started using the app, I'm saving at least €20 a month on groceries all thanks to Surprise Bags from local award-winning Cork stores like Cameron Bakery, Davidsons Craft Butcher, Pana Bread and Ruairi's Kitchen. "Beyond saving money, there's a great feel-good factor in reducing food waste and shopping sustainably. Whether it's planning a Sunday roast from a Butchers' Surprise Bag or discovering new spots while on holiday, the app is a key part of my routine." Shopping cart, trolley The sustainable shopper has some top tips for those using the app for the first time. To get the best surprise bags, she says users should set their catchment area to their postcode plus 25km, and favourite everything first then narrow down your choices. Jackie plans her weekly meals around what she gets in her surprise bag and then freezes what she doesn't eat, even leftovers from the bakery. While the Cork woman loves a good bargain, she encourages others to only buy a Too Good To Go Bag if they really need it- and not just for the good deal.

One garden furniture expert revealed that a discarded toothbrush will make all the difference in your cleaning caddy. It can help in restoring weathered garden furniture to its former glory, and save you money on expensive cleaning products in the process. And with the warm summer weather leading to an increase in al fresco dining and outdoor entertaining, there's no better time to transform your patio furniture. Advertisement Read More On Cleaning Hacks Since the often damp conditions of the British climate can cause grime to accumulate on wooden furniture, it's important to take action sooner rather than later. Expert opinion "The unpredictable British weather can leave garden furniture looking less than its best at times," rarden furniture expert Bradley Spencer told To combat dust, dirt, and grime, the pro suggested using gentle cleaning methods for wooden outdoor furniture. And while a combination of water and mild soap on a sponge can work, dilute white vinegal solution is recommended for "tackling any stubborn dirt".

According to the expert, it can "remove dirt and loose debris from crevices".

You can pick up a Advertisement After care After cleaning treatment, give the piece of furniture a thorough rinse with fresh water to eliminate any residual product. "A regular deep clean can not only protect the longevity and functionality of outdoor items but give them an instant makeover too," the pro said. And quality timber products can last for decades when properly maintained. How to clean your garden soft furnishings CLEANING your outdoor furniture and furnishings is a relatively easy task, and requires household items already in your cupboards. Here's what you'll need, according to gardening expert Daniela Venturini from What you'll need include: A soft bristle brush A bucket of warm water Mild laundry detergent or washing up liquid White vinegar A clean damp microfibre cloth A clean dry towel Clear your furniture of excess debris Before cleaning your outdoor furniture ensure that the surfaces are free from excess debris and dirt from your garden, and remove any outdoor cushion covers where possible, as this will make the cleaning process much easier. Wash down furniture with warm soapy water In a bucket of warm water, add a few drops of mild laundry detergent or washing up liquid to create your cleaning solution. For any tougher stains, such as harsh water stains or mildew, apply undiluted white vinegar to any stains and let it sit for about an hour in the sun. 3. Use a soft bristle brush to rub away stains Using a soft bristle brush, gently rub your cleaning solution onto your garden furniture in small circular movements. After scrubbing, take a clean damp microfibre cloth and ensure that all detergent and soap suds are removed from your garden furniture. After cleaning, take a clean towel and absorb the majority of moisture off your garden furniture and then simply leave in the sun to dry. So to keep them looking prim and proper, experts recommend giving them a thorough cleaning biannually, followed by an application of fresh sealant or protective oil. Advertisement And during colder periods, place the furniture under a protective covering or store them in a sheltered space. "You might be surprised just how much of a difference a deep clean can make to your garden furniture and your entire outdoor space," the pro added. He also warned against using high-pressure cleaning equipment on timber surfaces. According to the pro, tools like pressure washers "may cause damage if not done properly". Advertisement He explained that the blasts can damage the protective coating, causing the wood to chip and, consequently, be "more vulnerable" to sun and water damage.
