It's just one banana peel so it is surprising that just by putting this one item in your food waste caddy so much electricity could be made.

Now is quite a good time to reassess many things and if the kids are around as well then they can help and learn something - or teach you!  It costs a lot more to finally dispose of anything in the waste which IS recyclable in our kerbside collections but which we have failed to put in the recycling.  Those canny Scots have it sussed:

It is much easier to have a go at food recycling in the cooler months.  You will soon see what you could have bought and used and stored differently.
