How can we help alleviate food insecurity and waste?

I saw a problem and decided to do something about it..

My journey with food storage began a few years ago when we were watching TV and wanted a snack. I wanted to open a bag of chips but didn’t want to commit to finishing the bag.

I realized that there were no food storage options that were user-friendly, kept food fresh, and did not hurt the environment.

I looked through all the food storage options that we had in the house. First, I found clips. They didn’t work to keep food fresh and they were irritating to use. Then we had zip lock bags which kept food a bit fresher but were terrible for the environment. The reusable containers we had didn’t keep the food very fresh.

Afterwards, I started researching what was available in the market. I purchased and tested out a food storage container that had a pump to remove air. It seemed like a great idea but it was difficult to use. People don’t want to have to put work into keeping their food fresh.
