The other day I saw a very small amount of green beans saved in a plastic
container.

I admit I don't think that amount of food (maybe 3 or 4 forks full) is
worth
saving and I would have tossed it.

What to you is worth saving and how do you determine it? Cost? Amount?

To be perfectly honest with you, Dimitri, about the only factor I consider
these days is "will anyone eat this if I save it?" I got tired of saving
things that were never eaten, only to throw them away later. It took me a
while to get used to cooking for only 3, and sometimes I still make too
much, but at least it's usually the meat that I make too much of, and that
usually gets eaten! As long as it is enough for at least one serving, and I
know someone will eat it, I will save it.
