💚 Welcome to Grandma Sita’s Kitchen 💚
COOKING WORKSHOPS AGAINST FOOD WASTE
FACTS
Globally, approximately one-third of all food produced for human consumption in the world is lost or wasted each year (FAO).
Food waste is one of the most urgent sustainability challenges in Denmark. The time has come to shape the green transition in a socially responsible manner.
Unfortunately, in recent years consumers are not entirely aware of the fact, that every product we save from waste, has a positive impact on our climate.
Want to learn about how you can cut down on food waste at home? Grandma Sita is delighted to share her know-how about sustainable food culture, helpful tips to prevent and avoid food waste, and overall how to make conscious consumption number one priority in every household.
Our friendly workshops are designed to learn how to cook from scrach plant-based meals with food surplus, reuse leftovers, and eat together while working for a greater cause: fighting against food waste!

- DID YOU KNOW…
💚 Sustainable diets are defined as those diets with low environmental impact that contribute to food and nutritional security and to healthy lives for present and future generations.
- 🌱 A plant-based diet avoids or has limited animal products, but it is not necessarily vegan. Plant-based foods derive from plants including vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds, legumes and fruits.
- 🛒 Food rescue is the practice of gleaning edible food that would otherwise go to waste from places such as grocery stores, bakeries or supermarkets, and distributing it to local food programs.
- ♻️ Upcycled foods are made from ingredients that would otherwise have ended up in a food waste destination such as incinerators, food for animals or buried in landfill sites, among others.
