You will delight your taste buds and avoid contributing to the great food waste at the same time! We’ve all been there: a banana that turns brown and everyone leaves it in the bin… apples that caught our eye at the market and whose skin is starting to wrinkle… Don’t panic! Stéphanie Faustin, a committed author and pioneer in the zero waste and anti-waste approach, has put together this colorful “Zero Waste Fruits” collection for us.
