No waste, just taste — Grandma Sita’s way!
We all care about not wasting food, but sometimes a little lack of food knowledge can lead to waste. That’s where Grandma Sita comes in!
Grandma Sita is an SDG-aligned food start-up inspired by our grandmothers, who never wasted a crumb, valued resourcefulness, and loved every meal.
Through a charming, handcrafted puppet made from recycled materials, we raise awareness about preventing food waste and promote sustainable gastronomy across generations.
At Grandma Sita, we are building a zero-waste kitchen culture that respects the planet, honours tradition, and nurtures the future.

Why food waste Matters
A Global Problem
🗑️🏠 1/3 of all food produced is wasted — while millions go hungry. Most waste happens at home, especially as food prices rise.
🥕🍞 25% of vegetables and cereals are wasted. Bread and fruit are among the most discarded foods.
🚜💧 Wasted food = wasted energy, water, and labor. Food waste causes 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions!!!
💸⚖️ It’s not just wasteful — it’s costly, harming both the planet and your wallet. It’s a social issue, too. Some go without, while others throw food away.
Because when we waste food, we waste the future.
Solution: The Grandma Sita Way
💡 The solution starts at home. Understanding the problem is the first step. Awareness is the main ingredient. Fighting food waste isn't just good for the planet — it's essential for household budgets and fair access to food.
💚 At Grandma Sita, we believe that food is love, and wasting it is not an option. We give surplus and overlooked ingredients a second chance — turning them into nourishing meals and meaningful moments.
🌍 It’s not just about saving food — it’s about building a culture of care, creativity, and zero waste. Small changes, big impact. That’s the Grandma Sita Way.
