Of all the things to worry about when it comes to waste Halloween doesn't even scartch the surface for me
Still waiting on someone to talk about how fishing nets are 50% of the plastic in our oceans
Well, this is talking about food waste, not pollution. Even if it rots and doesn't do anything, worst case it's a pile of bio-matter. The land, and everything involved in growing them could be used for actual food though, which could decrease food prices potentially.
Still, it's not a big deal and there's bugger fish to fry, but it doesn't mean it shouldn't be considered. Changing your mindset can make other issues and solutions more obvious.
Halloween food - no.
Halloween plastic decorations, wrapping, costumes.... yeah, we can do without
It's low priority for sure.
