More than 8 million pumpkins are wasted each year during Halloween season in the UK alone. Research found that a shocking 18,000 tonnes of pumpkin is wasted each year, including the …
For my birthday I wanted to celebrate with my family and involve food in the celebrations. I wanted to use vegan food for the day for my non-vegan guests. Safe to say it was a hit as there was not much food left over at the end! I ended up getting a variety of foods …

Being hungover is not pleasant and can be made worse when you’re hungry hungover but don’t know what to eat. If you know you might be hungover the next day, it is always best to get some food in for the next day. This will not only help your hunger but also your bank account, …
