We want to give a huge round of 👏 👏 👏 to Prep Kitchen, who recently joined us in our fight to prevent food waste and feed Londoners in need. Prep Kitchen makes chef-cooked healthy meal plans that are delivered right to your door. And by partnering with us, they are ensuring that any products at the end of their production run or left over food items are given to us. These types of prepared ingredients are a boon for our Felix Kitchen, which in producing around 5,000 meals a day, need a tonne of prepped vegetables. Thank you Prep Kitchen for joining us and if you're a food supplier, distributor, farm etc, and want to join us in building a London where no good food goes to waste and no-one goes hungry, message Richard Smith or visit https://lnkd.in/e5zB4feC

Fish and Chips truly has a place in our hearts as the Nation’s Favourite Takeaway, selling over 382 million (!!) portions every year in the UK. In fact, there are more fish and chip shops across the UK than McDonald's. As it's National Fish and Chip Day today, it's the perfect time to share some of my favourite fishy tea facts. 👇🏽 🚢 Fish and chip outlets sell approximately 25% of all the white fish consumed in the UK today. 🐟 Which came first? It was the fish. The tradition of eating fish coated with flour and fried in oil can be traced back to the early 1800s. Even Charles Dickens writes of it in both Oliver Twist and A Tale of Two Cities. The first fried 'chip' hails from Dundee, a little later (trust the Scots). 🍟 London and Lancashire both claim to be the birthplace of combined fish and chips in the 1860s. We may never know for sure who is correct! 🗞️ The longest running fish and chip shop, still in operation in Leeds. “The Oldest Fish & Chip Shop in the World” has apparently been serving the dish since 1865. 🏪 As of today there are over 10,500 Fish and Chip Shops in the UK. 💙 A fish supper contains 7.3% fat – but by comparison a pork pie has 10.8% fat! And Fish and Chips with peas provides a third of the recommended daily allowance of vitamins. So, it's not as big a sin as you may think! 🌍 Although beloved here, fish and chips can also be found in other areas of the world with a few regional tweaks! In Belgium they eat their fish and chips with mayonnaise – in China they accompany it with sugar! The word ‘batter’ also comes from French and the word ‘battre’ which means ‘to beat’ – in reference to whisking flour and water together. 🏆 Finally...did you know the record number of fish and chip portions sold in one day belongs to Marini’s of Glasgow. In 1999 they sold 12,406 portions in a day! So with that in mind...will you be indulging in Fish and Chips tonight? #nationalfishandchipday #fishandchips #fish #fishing #scotland #scottish #smallbusiness #aberdeenshire #ecommerce #b2b

This article shows a business taking direct steps to reduce food waste and challenges perceptions of frozen food.
Co-Founder & Co-CEO @ GRIDDLE | B Corp™ 🧇 Better-for-you & better-for-planet bakery | HFSS compliant ✅ Find us in the freezer aisles ❄️
We often get asked ‘Why frozen?’ And this photo, taken from outside my local Tesco over the weekend is a perfect example of our ‘why’, yet also a sad example of the all too common sight of the food waste generated by traditional ambient bakery products. 🍞❌ At GRIDDLE | B Corp™ we made the decision to move all of our products into frozen in August 2021 after experiencing first-hand the levels of food waste involved in chilled and ambient (where we previously operated). It wasn’t until we looked further into the issue of food waste within baked goods that we realised quite how big the problem was, with the bakery sector producing a whopping 240,000 tonnes of waste a year within the UK (source WRAP UK). Operating within the frozen category allows us to extend the freshness of our products, eliminating the need for preservatives and, vitally, decreasing the amount of wasted baked goods, both at a store level as well as in the home (no more half eaten stale packs sitting in the bread bin at home). There is still a lot of work to do around the perception of frozen foods, especially within the UK market, but we are seeing progress with fresh, healthy and innovative new brands and products entering the category (a new personal favourite being the itsu [grocery] stuffed pancakes😍). P.S. Let me know any of your favourite frozen discoveries in the comments below! 👇👇 #frozenisthefuture #ReduceFoodWaste #shopfrozen #businessasaforceforgood

Bachelor's Short Way Today after my morning routine. I began to think of what would make me differentiate yesterday from today. Hmm, it was fooood 😂 So, I went to the kitchen, and after preparing a tasty African boiled water, I decided to cook noodles. When I was cutting veggies, my mind started narrating this idea to my thoughts. "What if there's a grocery store where it will be named Bachelor's Short Way where Bachelors like Abdulmalik Ibrahim Shafi’i can buy chopped veggies, powdered pepper, Bowls of stew, Bowls of Soup, and lots more that can be stored in their refrigerators to warm and eat whenever the need arises" I wish this idea could work for someone because it will solve a problem and generate revenue. If you have an existing restaurant or a grocery store where this idea and others will work for you, visit us at LOTUSBank to discuss how we'll finance the business with our Sharia-compliant products. Back in my kitchen, I successfully cooked sumptuous noodles, after eating I realized today was Sunday and tomorrow will be Monday. Earth without a Bachelor is barren 😂 #nibwithmmg #partnerprogressprosper #bankwithLOTUS
