How the Amish Are Smarter With Money Than You (And They Don’t Even Have Wi-Fi)

Amish Take on Leftovers

Here’s a fun fact most people overlook: food waste in the U.S. is out of control. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, we toss about 30-40% of the food we buy—talk about a pricey trip to the trash can. But not in Amish kitchens. These folks are the absolute kings and queens of minimizing waste.

Leftovers? They don’t even get the chance to make it to the fridge most of the time. If they do, they get turned into something else: soup, casseroles, you name it. Whether it’s pie dough scraps or extra veggies, they find a way to reimagine every last bit. No waste, no guilt.
