I enjoy making delicious meals from leftovers and I can't bear the ease with which some people throw edible and tasty food away. Many flavours improve with age anyway. I just wish that people weren't such slaves to 'sell by' and 'best before' dates and remember fondly the days when people were more knowledgable and could tell when a basic foodstuff was no longer edible. However, there are certain advantages to the discerning shopper. Buying reduced price avocadoes that are rock hard, but have been discounted by supermarket staff because they have reached their 'display until' date is quite satisfying.
