“Nothing is ever wasted. Most of it goes to the SecondBite food charity, ”Laura said.
“Some of the unwanted products end up in the garden compost,” she continued.
“It’s so amazing to see all the equally divided trash systems in place to make sure everything is disposed of properly,” she said.

It comes after MasterChef judges Andy Allen and Jock Zonfrillo berated Team Orange on their waste of raw duck meat Monday night.
During the challenge, the participants were split into three teams and challenged to feed 100 people in their homes via a Deliveroo context menu.
This was a first in MasterChef’s history, as a total of 60 dishes – including a starter, main course and side dish – had to be prepared for diners at home.
The Orange team, led by Scott, opted for a Thailand-centric menu that included Thai fish cakes with a sweet chili sauce for the starter, a red duck curry with steamed rice for the main course and a Pad Kra Pao for the side dish.

While preparing the curry, the judges noticed that Team Orange wasted huge amounts of duck meat, prompting Judge Andy Allen to approach them while holding a duck breast.
“What happens to the rest? He asked alongside Jock Zonfrillo, who sounded equally disapproving. “Are you not using the breast?” “
The team explained that they were only going to use the duck legs and that they “didn’t have time” to smash all the ducks.
“So you’re not using any of this?” None of that?’ Andy continued.
Team captain Scott then said they would only use the “Marylands”.
“It sounds like madness,” Andy said. “So what do you do with the 30 ducks that still have the breast, wings, neck, carcass. What happens then?
