That doesn't stop you from Meal Planning ahead and only buying what you need for that week.

And leftovers can often make great soups, stews, and curries. They can last in the fridge for about a week.

Sure, but I just wanted to point out that some of us do not have freezers that can store a lot of food. Whenever I see people being like "just freeze the leftovers" I look at my freezer like "how?". If I put a bag of beans, a bag of ice and some springrolls in there, it is filled to the brim.

People shouldn't assume that everybody have tons of space to store perishable foods. That's all.

In my household we usually go for small packs of food when we shop groceries. Meats and vegetables etc. We go for small sizes because we don't want to end up throwing out food. It's not cheaper, but it is less wasteful in the long run.

I have a reasonable sized freezer, not a huge one, but I feel like if I put a bag of ice in it I'd have very little space. Ice cube trays will leave you with more room.

Very true! It does feel like playing tetris with that little box sometimes, haha.
