Default how to recycle food left overs?

I was watching Rachel Ray the other day. She did something with her left overs and it became an instant gourmet meal. Too bad i was unable to get the recipe!

Rests of food, also known as "biomüll" in german can be also used to grow the fertility of the land you planted different things. This is the best way to "recycle" food rests! a natural way!

I do not suggest recycling of food meterials .. The food which is spoiled cannot be consumed by human being instead it can be given to animals or used as a manure for plants .

Japan has gotten resourceful with their animal feed: they’re putting the country’s huge amounts of food waste to work. The country disposes of approximately 20,000 tons of food every year, which decomposed in landfills, filling the air with the greenhouse gas methane. In 2001, the Japanese government put laws into effect that led to a new kind of recycling industry – one where those food scraps are either turned into animal feed and fertilizer, or allowed to decompose in special facilities that harness the methane to power industrial plants.

Some may go to the dog, cat or even chickens or pigs, but what about all those vegetable peelings, coffee grounds, teabags and do on. That's still a fair quantity of waste going in the bins, and it's not only the volume that's the problem, food waste not only begins to rot and stink but attracts dogs and cats into the bins.

So what can be done about all those kitchen scraps? Get some worms, some nice red wrigglers that will chomp through all your food refuse and give you a ready supply of free worms for fishing or selling to local fishermen... and produce nature's best organic fertilizer.

Is this going to be expenisve? Well it can be, but it doesn’t need to be. It all depends on whether you are impatient and want to spend some money to jump-start your wormery by buying a quantity of worms or are instead prepared to collect your intial start-up worms.
