 Stop throwing out your food junk. There are 10 reasons to bury them instead

Everyone eats, and almost everyone (at least in the United States) produces a lot of food waste. When most people clean their plates, it is customary to dump food waste in the trash with minimal thought. What can you do with leftover, somewhat chewy food? It turns out that there are many things you can do with food waste, especially when it comes to gardening. Read on to find out why you should not throw away your food waste.

1. Food waste decomposes.

Food waste such as fruits, banana peels, citrus peels, paper towels, and tea bags will decompose when buried in the soil. The duration of decay is usually from one month to one year

2. Food waste adds nutrients to the soil.

According to Cedar Circle Farm, adding food debris to the soil helps to recover organic matter because it provides the necessary pathways for microorganisms in the soil. This makes the soil healthier for the plants.

3. Reduce waste and save money.

It can help the environment by reducing ordinary kitchen waste. Additionally, you can save money on the cost of garbage disposal.

4. Reduce bad odors.

Food waste should not be kept indoors and stink. With the right composting recipe, the compost itself will have no odor.

5. It is also good for dogs.

Eating your dog food junk can lead to a very unhealthy, unbalanced diet. (Make sure you do not bury meat or milk.)

6. Food waste helps retain water.

Food waste in the soil provides more moisture, which helps the whole garden.

7. Easy and quick composting.

Bury food waste is a way to help a lazy environment. Dig a pit (about 10 to 12 inches deep), pour in the food debris, and change the soil. That's it!

8. Strengthens neighboring plants (and tastes better).

Your neighboring plants will be happy. “Research shows that compost improves the ability of tomatoes and other vegetables to fight common diseases and improves their taste and nutrition,” says Pony Plant. In addition, your family will be happy to provide them with the most delicious and healthy food.

9. Help prevent pests.

Food waste acts as a natural means of pest control. For example, garlic helps prevent worms, ants, and other unwanted organisms. Sometimes even humans!

10. It's free.

There is no cost to you for burying food waste. No need to buy any expensive fertilizer. Have you ever buried food waste? If you know someone who loves gardening,
