I always feel terrible when I dispose of food in the trash. It does decompose better than plastic, but wouldn’t be better to put it back to use in your garden? I mainly do vermicomposting since it is considerably easier than turning compost piles. Therefore, I am unable to compost certain things like lemons or onions or other foods. These days though they have composting machines to help us out! I have seen quite a few on indiegogo or other platforms. I have had the vitamin food cycler now for 1-2 years. It works really well for me. I put all sorts of things in it, and I never have problems with it though it can take several hours. Check out my video:
