i will have some meat removed from the bone. i even have had them butterfly and debone a whole chicken. i do not make stock so i do not need the bones, figure why pay for them if it is a service they offer.
i also will break off 2-3 bananas off a bunch as i never eat a full bunch before they go bad so i just take what i think i will eat that week.
i do keep broccoli as well as artichoke stalks even though the store has a bin for them, they are edible and the artichoke stalk tastes like like the heart.
i will pull the outer leaves off of cauliflower and broccoli, same goes for carrot stems. again stores provide bins.
i guess one area i may be cheap at is when dealing with ginger. i never need a piece the size of a dinner plate so i snap off a piece about the size of my finger. the produce guy said it was acceptable to do it but it does feel a little cheap. i just hate wasting food and or money.
