I like that some things were not completely zero waste or eco friendly. I feel like a lot of these channels make it seem like you have to be miserable if you don't find better replacements. And I think it' important to at least try, something is better than nothing.
You dont need to worry about it. There are some places where it is easier and cheaper to have a zero waste life style. If you are european you can menage to fulfill that lifestyle but in the US it seems to be pretty hard because everything is packaged so you have to go to special stores. The most important thing is that you do something and you dont have to succeed 100%. You are not a hyporcite for not beeing able to do 100% I mean even your lungs dont process 100% of that oxigen that gets into them by taking a deep breath. Just discover the zero waste world in your area. Reduce waste if you are able to and look out for things you can change. Also you can try to spread awareness and maybe make someone follow you by getting them interested. It is easier to have a change for the enviorment if many people do a bit and not a few do everything.
It’s a relief to see a couple of plastic items in your freezer. We buy a couple things packaged that way each month too, like strawberries and I feel so guilty about it sometimes! It feels like there’s so much pressure for perfection in the Zero Waste world.
Try Raye's mustard. They are made in Maine using the old stone grind method and it is the best mustard and it comes in glass jars that are gorgeous to reuse.
Few tips, get the onions and garlic away from your other produce. The emit an odor that will make everything else go bad quicker. Also keep you scallions in a glass jar with water (also the lettuce) they will continue to grow and you can just trim off what you need. Same works well for asparagus, it can last for over a week in the fridge. Just change the water every few days. And your new place looks amazing!
I've been working on learning more about things like that so thank you for telling me!!
If you put onions and potatoes next to each other it will make the onions sprout.
Apples do that too!
@@coeurdequebecoise I was telling my mom about it like yeah put them together and they'll sprout. Then terally at the same time we both look over at the VERY sprouted onion. It was super funny. I didn't know about the apples thing that's too funny.
Super helpful!
Glad someone else is team dill pickle! Bread and butter ones are evil
Bread and butter pickles are really good on lays potato chips. Don’t really like them otherwise
i agree..eww
Oh wow I loved this beautiful kitchen/pantry/fridge tour. It's very minimal yet full of interesting thoughtful choices.. I'd be interested in seeing more of these videos.:D
Also a zero waste cleaning and beauty supply store just opened about an hour away from me, I’m going there when summer starts!
How exciting!!
Ah what is it called.?
I looooove that you show some things that you love but that come in foil or package that is not the best. I think it's great to see that you don't have to be perfect and sacrifice everything we loved to live more intentionally. Lets just all do our best wherever it is : 20% or 60% or 90% it's all great!
Btw if you are in Bay Area then Rainbow Grocery is your bulk heaven ☺️
She's in Texas....like she said in the video.
Lol I'm sorry I meant if anybody is in bay area that's a great place to go 😊 my bad
@@0kurkina0 love rainbow! Need to take a trip asap💕
Rainbow grocery in SF is awesome! If you are in the east bay, Oakland has a local shop called "the Food Mill." Love em both.
@@0kurkina0 thanks for the tip!!
Mangos outside the fridge get ripe quicker :)
Mentions tenant secretly but also mentions that her sister loves pickles tooooo. Hmmmmm. 🧐🧐😂😂 Though that's probably just a generic comment.
I suck 🙈😂
@Robin azdreamer they do donate some to food pantries, at least in the bay area where they are from 😊
@@Shelbizleee 😂😂😂😂
That's literally what I was thinking
I’m still loving my Imperfect Produce box Shelbi, thank you so much for the referral! And now my coworker has switched to Imperfect Produce and trying more plant based eat. Ripples in a pond 🙃
Yayyyy! Love that so much 👏
You could totally eat that mango unripened(?)!! Shred it and make a salad. A lot of Thai “salads” have a base of sour mango/not ripe mango ☺️🥭
Storing compost in the freezer is pretty genius. I'm currently struggling to control a smell from our small bin and it's getting hot where I live. So that would be amazing to try
I do this and it's been a life saver. My mother in law does not and wonders why she gets so many flies in her house but I don't lol! She doesn't believe me that the freezer is the way to go.
The freezing breaks the plant cell walls and actually makes it easier for it to be broken down into compost too
Brianna Johnson
There are also airtight containers of all sorts. I’ve been using an airtight waste bin by ‚simple human‘, (which is a fairly expensive brand, though) for my compost for years. Works great. No smell, no flies.
But there are lots of suitable containers, if you look around a bit.
I did a hole for my compost/ household food waste then cover a couple days nooo problems or issues w flies Good luck allll
While I don’t know of zero waste shops in my area, I do have something that I do with watermelon. After you have eaten your fill, put the rind through a blender or juicer. My granddaughter loves watermelon rind juice in the summer. It’s hydrating, naturally sweet, and gives you another way to get the most for your buck before it’s off to compost
I thought the rind wasnt healthy
www.healthline.com/health/food-nutrition/watermelon-rind-benefits
You should try Maille Mustard. It's a French company dating back to the 1700s, though owned by Unilever since 2010-is(?). They were the first ones to make Dijon mustard. Their produce comes in glass jars with metal lids. I use them myself and honestly, never had better mustard.
Love it. Also started making my own, SUPER easy and you can make it as spicy as you want.
Yes i love them!!!! Not every produse has metal lids, some has plastic lids... But i always re-use the jar, when i make Jam or tomato Paste... Or pate. Anyway, love them
Meghan Kinney please share the recipe!
@@miss_m_yt Equal parts yellow and brown mustard seeds. Enough liquid/vinegar to cover by an inch. Here's where the fun comes in...vinegar is a must for at least 50% of the liquid. You can use any vinegar and any other liquid you want really. Like...red wine vinegar and some red wine, or malt vinegar and beer, or anything you can think of. Let the seeds soak in the liquid overnight. I suggest hitting the mixture with a stick blender if you want smoother mustard as an end result. For whole grain mustard, don't blend yet. After the mix has sat for up to 48 hours in a cool shaded place and absorbed most of the liquid (depending on container size and shape you may have extra liquid after 48 hours, this can be drained off and reserved if the end product is too thick for your liking), blend the mixture in a blender or alternative with sweetener of your choice. I have used honey, sugar, brown sugar, maple syrup, and even stevia. This is all a matter of preference. For a dijon texture mustard, use only yellow mustard seeds and blend extra well and strain. You can add flavorings like fresh horseradish, red pepper, tarragon, jalapeno. If it's in a specialty store, you can probably make it for cents on the dollar if you have access to whole mustard seed in large quantities. Sorry I don't have an exact recipe, I make it a bit different everytime I make it. And it does mellow the longer it sits.
Meghan Kinney thank you!!!!
Compost tip I save the plastic containers from the lettuce I buy ( the large spring mix or spinach are perfect) and keep it in the fridge to hold all my compostable items until I bring them out to our pile it works perfect and if the bucket absorbs too many smells I will eventually swap it out. Free and efficient
Finally subscribed because I had to binge watch some of their videos to make sure they weren’t one of shaming type of alternative lifestyle and they’re really inclusive in encouraging to do what you can and be mindful.
Thank you so much for sharing this. It is so nice to see that there are even some things that you struggle to find un-packaged. As weird as that sounds, it's almost refreshing that even someone like you struggles to find certain things. I try to get what I can package free or with the least amount/most sustainable packing I can. Since I haven't been able to give up yogurt, what I do is buy the very large containers so there's just less packaging overall. TFS!!
Haha thank you for mentioning the bread and butter pickles are disgusting, I'm glad I'm not the only one
ayyitsderek I hate them too!
We have the same fridge!!! I absolutely love mine. The drawer at the bottom is perfect for prepped meals.
Becoming zero waste has made me learn to cook a lot of things from scratch which is neat. Popcorn is my favorite example. A little more time cooking but grocery shopping is a breeze because the things I buy are really basic ingredients.
I found an app for making sure you get all of your nutrients as a vegan. It’s designed by a doctor. It is a daily checklist of different necessary food groups. That app gives me ideas of what to shop for/cook to be healthy as a beginner vegan. Daily Dozen is the app. I might be the only one who didn’t know about it but thought I would share!
Oh how I’ve crashed and burned being a new vegan and low waste. It was a huge change for this small town girl! You’ve helped me a lot!
I’m from Texas and it’s so weird hearing you talk about central market and Fredericksburg peaches I think it’s so cool that I could possibly just see you on the street one day
I don't keep my chia seeds in the fridge. I never even thought about it 😶
They are not in the fridge at the bulk store......
Mypokerbuzz I do but only cause my mom kept them in the fridge and I didn’t question it 😂
If you want that mango to ripen I would suggest leaving it out on the counter a few days. The low temperature of the fridge delays food breaking down which is great most of the time, but not so great if you actually want something to ripen. Once it's ripe you can put it back in the fridge to prolong its life. Love from England! X
Ah I see! I will take it out of the fridge 😂
Store your unwrapped lettuce with a napkin wrapped around it! It'll prevent moisture!! 💓 Thank you for all your videos! Your heart is so precious! 💓
Before you mentioned the shelves I was like “omg the shelves 😍💚
Btw if you buy chia (or hemp, flax, etc) in bulk and don’t use it often then store in fridge. Otherwise it’s fine to leave out it you use it up in a few weeks or so :)
Good mustard in glass: Grey Poupon. I also actually found mayonnaise (like the best foods brand) in a small glass jar which I thought was cool.
I LOVE CENTRAL MARKET!!! And they are in Houston (I used to live there).
In Las Vegas, I go to Sprouts for my bulk stuff; they let me use my own bags and I get complements on using them all the time!
I really hope Imperfect Produce opens up in Las Vegas. I know there is a lot of food wasted around here. 😕
Also, your kitchen is gorgeous! 😍
Imperfect Produce is awesome! I’ve been a customer for a few months AND my partner just started working for the company, he loves it!
honestly i was so relieved to see that gardein in your freezer!! i'm just starting my low/zero waste journey and while there are a lot of things i can get without packaging.. i don't know what i'd do without some frozen meats! i feel so much pressure to be "perfect" (even though i know it's literally NOT POSSIBLE) so it's nice to see that even you still eat gardein sometimes 😅
I thought the same! Honestly, I feel like the packaging waste from things like Gardein is a better trade off waste-wise than buying actual meat at the grocery store.
Central Market has been in Houston for decades! We love it!
I recently discovered your channel and I love your videos! I feel that I have a story very similar to yours (I used to be a shopaholic... and literally have mom who I learned that behavior from and still is a shopaholic). Anyway, I have recently started on my low waste journey and from my actions, I have encouraged others to make small changes. I have a few coworkers who have noticed my little changes (metal/glass straws, silicone reusable bags for food, reusable menstrual products, buying in bulk with my own bags, etc..) and I have seen them start to do the same. I have also begun to declutter my home and sale excess things on Poshmark so that it can go to someone who can use my items.
Recently, I took a trip back to Nashville with a coworker. We decided to grab some lunch at a local spot and when ordering our food they handed my coworker plastic utensils, she refused them politely and asked if they had any reusable utensils she could use. The staff were so accommodating and even made a comment about how "that is awesome that we are doing that". It was so awesome to see that my actions had inspired her and that maybe her actions had inspired someone else to look at what waste they are producing!
Anyway, sorry for the long comment. I just wanted to say that I have really been inspired by your videos and you have really helped me in my journey to low waste/zero waste. Thank you for what you do! Much love from San Diego, CA!
Love the aesthetic plants with the jars going to do that once I move into my new apartment
You look so pretty in this video Shelby! Love the shirt! 😁
I dont have many options. I have walmart which i prefer not to shop, aldi and kroger. I can travel 40 minutes for a bulk store however that is not an option due to relying on food stamps and the bulk stores not accepting them.
You have really inspired me to really take on more with zero waste and I'm so excited with every leap I make and just knowing I can improve instead of focusing on what I am not doing for zero waste. Also love the idea of having your garlic precut and so excited to learn about imperfect produce. 😁 💖 Thank you!
I love the compost stored in the freezer idea!!!!! diy mustard is dry mustard with vinegar and pinch of salt you could also add mustard seeds for texture.... for those inclined to make their own 🤗
Ohh yes, I like that shelf area you put up. Like the idea with the straws out so people can see and grab.
Also, I keep chia seeds and flax in the fridge in a small jar and the rest of the bulk in the freezer. (i do this with nuts and stuff that can loose freshness too)
Hi, great vid and info for living a more fulfilling lifestyle. Chia seeds can be shelf or fridge stored, but many do say that seeds and nuts should be refrigerated due to the fact that they can become rancid. Some faster than others. So if you have the space in the fridge, move those seeds and nuts and bring the popcorn down to enjoy! We love nutritional yeast on our popcorn with coconut oil. Keep enjoying the yummy life we live!
I live in Southern Kentucky and there aren't any bulk stores close to me, so I just have to shop at the farmers market which is fine since I'm supporting local farmers.
You have improved so much in your video editing and the audio! Great job, your efforts don’t go unnoticed :)
The Better than Boullion vegan chicken broth comes in a glass jar and is delicious if you can find it instead of the wrapped ones!
BTB? they have a vegan one?? I've never seen it!
@@Shelbizleee yea I've seen the BTB vegan chicken in stores and found a vegan beef one too online. I use them in our homemade seitan its soo good!
Hi Shelbi! Fortunately, I have an amazing grocery chain in my local area called MOM’s Organic Market. They sell many things in bulk and actually encourage you to bring your own container! They also support local organizations and are committed to sustainability. They even have a place to recycle all different types of items and an industrial compost drop-off! I love it! 😍
I used to work there. I bring my compost there and anything that needs to be recycled properly.
I love MOM. They're not in my area, but when I visit my mother, I make sure to also visit MOM.
I love your channel! Your informative approach has helped me learn so much and given me guidance on my journey to a more minimal and low waste lifestyle! Love the song on this vid - I've been using it in all of mine! 😁 Thank you for putting out such great content!
I used to be able to get literally everything in bulk, even spices and random stuff like that, but moving to a small town really killed that. I miss it so much!
Way better sound 👍🏻
I keep my chia, flax, and hemp seeds in the fridge. I had a packaged kind way back in the day that said to keep it in the fridge so I just kept doing it ever since.
Do a "Life Before Plastic" interview with your mom or grandmother. You would be surprised by how much stuff got put in plastic. I think only Ritz crackers, Campbells soup, and tea bags are still in their original packaging. Laundry detergent (Tide) used to be in big cardboard boxes as a dry powder. Plastic was only really introduced in the 70's-80's, Tupperware was really the 1st introduction to plastic. I'm 40 and I still remember stuff not in plastic. I did buy the produce bags you showed, they do work really well and only one person gave me some weird looks. A walk through Trader Joe's produce department was a real eye-opener.
If anyone is in Nebraska specifically Omaha I bulk shop at fresh thyme or HyVee there's also the dapper dwelling which has a large refill station with bulk personal care items. Fresh thyme is awesome about you bringing your own containers for the meat counter as well
The house looks amazing! So spacious and light.. love it
Here in Dublin there're a few places already that sell in bulk. The products are organic which is great but not cheap so we buy whenever possible. It's great to have the option 😃
Thank you so much for being realistic! I feel like a lot of zero wasters have an all or nothing mentality. Realistically most people aren’t going to be able to put their entire years worth of trash into a mason jar 🙄 but that doesn’t mean we can’t try!
We have a few large grocery chains that have like an aisle for a few things on bulk. It's mostly beans and different types of dried snack foods.
A great trick for ripening fruit is to put it on the counter for a couple days in a brown paper bag (reusable of course) with an apple or banana; they release ethylene gas which ripens fruit, and the paper will keep that near the fruit you want ripened while still letting everything breathe. Also, if you're going through them quickly enough, try storing tomatoes at room temperature; so much more flavor! Refrigeration kills that umami
We can do bulk coffee, nuts, honey, olive oil, and that’s about it in my area, I’m glad you posted about imperfect produce because that last time I checked them out, they weren’t available in my area!
The sound was great in this video!
I've noticed that my pantry got a lot smaller once I started on the less waste path. It helped focus on what I enjoy to eat, and I know my Staples now.
You should check out Wheatsville Co-Op! A great bulk section with tons of vegan items! I prefer the S Lamar location!
I am a user of Imperfect Produce. I like it because u can customize your box. I’ve tried Thrive too
This is a fabulous realistic low waste kitchen!
Philadelphia is great for zero waste. I find bulk at Sprouts, Moms Organic Market, Weavers Way Co-OP, The Head Nut at Reading Terminal Market, and Essene Market. All these stores let me bring my own containers.
Seeds and nuts last longer in the fridge or freezer but if you use it often then it is fine being stored at room temp. Another thing to consider is to keep them away from light and use air tight containers since that causes them to become rancid.
You should check out the garlic vegan parmesan recipe on cheaplazyvegan! It takes practically no time to make. I make a big batch and keep it in a jar in the fridge.
Love all the inspiration I get from these videos! I keep all of my nuts and seeds in the fridge ♡
I found out yesterday that my city has a store without packaging! I am sooo excited to shop there and an awesome piece of info: the shop made so much profit that they will open a new package free shop in a city close to us! (i am from germany and the two cities are ratisbonne and Straubing! And the store is called "unverpackt" which is german for not packaged.
😊😊❤️❤️
Judy Neptune there is one in Würzburg as well, apparently
My husband and I have just started buying in bulk but we have to drive an hour away to do so. We currently go once a month because it’s easier on us. We are also starting to eat more vegetables and less meat which is harder on him but I like trying new things so this change is fun because I have to try new stuff to see what I like
It makes me feel better that you buy Gardein, too lol. That's something I've had a tough time giving up!
Omg, Central Market
Holy crap! Freaking goals!!! Your videos have helped me talk to my SO about going more low/zero waste. ❤️
The next county over from me is PACKED with bulk stores and I drive almost every week about 20 miles to a Sprouts which I love! The best selection of plastic free produce I’ve seen! AND IM SO EXCITED because in the next month or so a Sprouts is opening about 15 minutes from me. I drive by the construction every day and I cannot wait!
I live in a very rural part of MI. so we have no bulk stores. But we do have amazing farmers markets& small businesses
I live in North Carolina and to my knowledge there aren’t any bulk food stores or anything. I would love to go shopping at a place with my own containers. They need to make more of these places.
For anyone living in NorCal- Olivers has a pretty good bulk section as well as produce not wrapped in plastic!
Here in St. John's, Newfoundland we have a store called Bulk Barn (which is a chain across Canada). Each store has over 4,000 bulk items with tons of gluten free and vegan options. It is great to just take your own packaging and buy almost anything in the store (with great prices and digital coupons!).
Bulk barn is awesome. And so is St. John's. 😍
@@333sam I like it! 💖
Omg I got so excited when I seen someone mention St. John's 🖤 bulk barn is the best!
Girl everything is SO BEAUTIFUL! I'm so happy for you!
I recently started making my own almond milk. It's super easy and tasty. Soak almonds overnight, then blend with fresh water.
Then, you just strain it into a reusable milk jug. Now, you have almond milk and almond meal (which I use as a face scrub). I sweeten the milk with honey and cinnamon or strawberry juice. It really is delicious. I promise.
I discovered your channel today and I'm just binge watching everything! Thank you! Love from Portugal! :)
I will be going to a zero waste market/store this week and will be looking around to see what I can get to enjoy and what I will need for further trips back to the zero waste market/shop and so happy to know there is one not to far from where I live
I get my groceries from Sobeys (chain grocery store here in Ontario) who carry a lot of loose produce. Zero Waste Bulk, which is a private Zero Waste shop here in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, and Bulk Barn (a bulk chain in Canada).
In SoCal I mainly shop at Sprouts and Fraizer Farms. Jimbos and Lazy Acres are other good ones in the SD area. If I’m close to a Whole Foods, I’ll stop in as well. I also shop a lot at my local farmer’s market too.
I would have liked to see your food storage containers, dishes, napkins (assuming you use cloth?) stuff like that as well. Maybe in a future video?
Yes! I’m going to do a part 2 with all the other stuff in my kitchen! It would have been super long if I had left it as one video 😂
With regards to 'day of good deeds' I wanted to thank you for the good deeds you do on a daily basis. I admire your content and your kind nature. Thank you for inspiring me every day! Lots of love from Switzerland.
This is actually goals! Wow you are so great! 😄💕
I'm going to try shopping at food co-ops to get local produce -cuts down on food travel emissions and less plastic packaging
Hey Shelb! I was so excited to see you posted this on my birthday!
I was wondering if you could post a video showing how to shop at a bulk store: what to bring, how to weight stuff, what to expect, etc. They just opened one near my house and I really want to use it, but I'm a little unsure of how to do it/what to expect 😬. Thanks!!!
I have a refill shop near me but it isn’t for foods. It is shampoos, conditioners and that kind of thing. It is a really great shop though. I don’t have a bulk food shop anywhere near my house though sadly. I am all for helping do our bit to save the planet though. Great video btw! 👍🌍🌿
all that produce looks better (more "perfect") than what I can get in my local supermarkets... I'm seriously questioning what's sold and how much food gets thrown out in the US (I live in Poland btw).
I agree with you, I don't understand bread and butter pickles for me they are way too sweet.
I just found your channel! Got here from the What I hate about Zero Waste video. I live in Austin too! So happy I found your channel.
me too
I live in San Diego and get TONS of package free/bulk products at Sprouts!
There's a central market in Conroe which is a northern suburb of Houston so I bet they are more of them in the Houston metro. And Central Market is the shee shee affiliate of HEB. Central Market brand is also a gourmet label sold at regular HEB stores.
I have only one option for VERY limited bulk shopping at a local food co-op they’re great to get locally grown fruits and veggies with small amounts of packaging along with some spices, teas, nut butters, honey, grains, and even nuts! I just find it super pricey considering I have a household of 2 adults and 3 kids 😅
Fresh Thyme markets are a good place to buy bulk, vegetarian/vegan foods, produce and more for people living in Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The stores are smaller than Whole Foods. I don't work for them-I am just a happy customer.
I love that you show that you still use some plastic. It can be intimidating to see these perfect aesthetic jar zero wasters.
Also I would look into seeing if your area has a coop. I go to my coop and found whipping cream in glass. I just cant be vegan and enjoy it with my disability caused eating restrictions, BUT my local coop helps me buy things local so I avoid supporting giant farms that are usually cruelty free. If an animal is helping us out with food we should give it a good life
I hope Thrive market will be available for Canadians soon! It seems awesome.
Hello from Houston! We have a Central Market and it’s my fave place everrrr!
There is also a Central Market in Ft. Worth, Texas incase anybody needs something closer and they can't go to Dallas.
I love your videos because it is not boring. ❤❤
I'm so happy to know that there is ketchup in glass containers! I've only always seen plastic so I will check out thrive when I need it ☺️
I love your kitchen! I don't have super easy access to a bulk store, I think there might be one about 45 minutes away. I do try to get bulk produce from local stands or Walmart/ Publix when I'm desperate. My Walmart was also selling bagged potatoes in a bag that was compostable, but I haven't seen it in a while. And I completely forgot we have a Fresh Market, but they are pretty pricey...
You can actually make your own mustard with mustard powder, vinegar, turmeric, salt and some sugar. I actually learned that yesterday, so fun thing there for anyone who wants to make their own yellow mustard, or cant find any good ones in glass, i know there are some spice brands that sell in glass.
Raye's mustard comes in a glass jar. Found once at big lots, but I think you can order online too😊
The only bulk store near-ish me has six steps to go up to get in the shop... but I’m a full time wheelchair user so I can’t get inside.
I’ve tried knocking on the door to get people to help me but it’s hard and some things go off before they’re used up and I’d rather not buy rancid stuff even if it’s zero waste.
I belong to a community food group where short dated groceries are distributed so they don’t go to landfill. It’s supposed to be for local people but it’s really popular and some people drive miles to get there!
