<< Anyway, given my
tendency to overeat fruits, the waste is minimal. >>
I used to think that I was saving food from "waste" by eating it, even beyond
the stop. Now I believe that the food becomes NON-FOOD (& therefore TOXIC to
the bod) at the moment of the stop and at THAT point it's waste regardless of
whether one choses to eat it or compost it, the only difference being the
choice to poison oneself with it by eating it when the body can't digest it
AND wasting it anyway.
I'll bet I didn't make that very clear!
