Walmart’s new delivery service will put groceries directly in your fridge

Impossible Foods’ next product is sausage
[ad_1] The sausage ingredients are only mildly different to the burger’s.

Meal kits might be better for the planet than a trip to the store
[ad_1] The difference is in the amount of food waste meal kits prevent. While grocery store meals have less packaging per meal, more food has to be purchased and that leads to higher household food waste.
