Which Kitchen Character are you?<br />

Confused<br />

Customer<br />

Tempting choices and<br />

confusing labels lead to a huge grocery<br />

bill and a stuffed fridge. It’s time to<br />

make sense of it all!<br />

• Use a shopping list to avoid<br />

confusion and impulse buys.<br />

• Use a whiteboard or a note on<br />

the fridge to keep track of what<br />

needs using up.<br />

Forgetful Foodie<br />

Your busy schedule and<br />

our city’s vibrant food<br />

scene leave the food in your fridge<br />

feeling neglected.<br />

• Use a kitchen calendar to manage<br />

your social commitments and<br />

help plan ahead while shopping.<br />

• Schedule a leftover feast night to<br />

use up the odd bits in the fridge.<br />

Fickle and Fearful<br />

You’d rather be safe than<br />

sorry, but sometimes food<br />

that’s still fine to eat gets needlessly<br />

chucked in the bin.<br />

• Make sure to store food properly,<br />

and freeze perishables for later.<br />

• Keep the fridge temp between 1°<br />

and 5°C to keep food fresh and safe.<br />

Freezer Fiend<br />

You’re a leftovers guru. But is<br />

your fridge starting to look like<br />

a food museum? Time to de-clutter.<br />

• Keep a list of the bits that need using<br />

up in the fridge and freezer. Crossing<br />

them off is so satisfying!<br />

• Aim to avoid unplanned leftovers by<br />

perfecting your portions.<br />

Compulsive<br />

Composter<br />

Is that a banana peel in your<br />

bag? You’re an antiwaste warrior, so<br />

use your commitment to inspire others.<br />

• No one wants to smell like leaky<br />

compost. Get a sturdy container to<br />

carry compostables around.<br />

• Talk to your workplace, community<br />

group or neighbours about<br />

communal composting.<br />
