Part 1: Selected 600-word essay on saving food

As the saying goes: Diligence can make up for clumsiness, saving can make up for poverty; careful budgeting can make you gain.

In daily life, we can see the phenomenon of wasting food everywhere. However, when we throw away a piece of steamed bun, do we think that there are many people in the world who are working hard for a meal? How many people are still struggling on the verge of death due to hunger? In the past, I never realized that I was wasting, and thought that a little waste was nothing. So I often pick and choose what I eat, and throw it away when I can’t finish it. But since I saw on TV the horrific scenes of many African refugees who were emaciated due to hunger, starved to death in the streets, and finally starved to death on the streets, I suddenly realized how happy our lives are: we have the love of our parents, and we have a big house to live in. , there are buses to and from school... It is precisely because the living conditions are so good that I have developed the bad habit of not saving food. Every time I eat, I drop a lot of rice grains, and it doesn't matter if I can't finish them. My parents criticize me, and I find many reasons to defend myself. Thinking of this, I feel very ashamed, I really shouldn't have! From now on, I must get rid of this shortcoming, save every grain of food, and never waste it again!

A handful of rice is saved every day, and a pound of grain is saved every month. The most important thing in everything is persistence, and saving starts from little things. Chapter 2: Selected 600-word essay on saving food

The ancients said: "A porridge and a meal should be remembered as hard-earned, and half a strand of constant thought is due to the difficulty of material resources." With the development of the economy, living standards my country's food resources are very rich. But are we really saving food now?

One noon during the National Day holiday, my father brought the hot steamed buns to the table. They were all white and fat, exuding an attractive aroma, as if waving to me. I couldn't wait to pick up one and eat it, but when I saw that it was stuffed with pumpkin, I immediately lost interest and threw the unfinished bun aside. At this time, my father and I had a heartfelt conversation. "Why did you throw it away?" "Because I don't like pumpkin stuffed buns, I don't want to eat them." Dad said, "Have you forgotten what you learned about "Compassion for the Peasants"? Every meal is hard-earned. , you can throw it away if you don’t like it?” Then my father told me that when they were young, they ate Yuanqu’s famous “three-stuffed steamed buns” during the Chinese New Year. There was even a folk song, “Yuanqu’s Chinese New Year steamed buns are really weird, white bread. "Yellow noodles, yellow bread with bean filling" means that the outside is white dough, the inside is cornmeal, and the corn bread is filled with bean filling. These steamed buns can only be eaten on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Each person is given one, but everyone eats it with relish. I felt so guilty after listening to my father's words. How could I forget that my grandfather was holding the steamed buns in one hand and putting the other hand under the steamed buns, for fear that some steamed bun crumbs would fall to the ground? How can we forget that grandma held the eggs like a treasure when she ate them, and after taking one bite, she seemed to have the satisfaction in the world?

Dad also talked about how when he was in middle school, the steamed buns eaten at school were all made of "black flour". Although they were a little sour, he still had to swallow them because he was hungry. The lunch dish It was some boiled radishes or some boiled pumpkins, which could be smelled from far away. The students joked that today was a "radish meeting" or a "pumpkin meeting"! Although this kind of rice is not delicious, everyone wolfs it down while eating and is reluctant to waste a little soup. Even with such a meal, they were not full. Especially when they went to bed at night, their stomachs growled and kept giving warnings. There was no canteen or food to satisfy their hunger, so they could only endure their hunger and sleep. Every holiday, the first thing he does when he returns home is to get into the kitchen to find something to eat.

Listening to Dad’s story, I lowered my head, and I really understood. Now that my living conditions are better, I can eat whatever I want at home, eat well and eat well at school, and have different meals throughout the week, all with nutritious recipes. Even so, how much is left over and thrown away! Shouldn't we cherish our current life, save food, and eliminate waste? Chapter 3: Selected 600-word essay on saving food

The reason why white rice is plump and shiny is that it is irrigated by sweat. Saving food is a way to live up to people's hard work and express respect for the working people.

Those farmers who plant under the hot sun use the sweat running down their cheeks to grow the meals that are placed on our tables. The fragrance wafting from the food is a kind of praise to the farmers, and it is also an admonition to us, save food and give a fragrance.

Since we were young, teachers have taught us in school that food is hard to come by and that saving food is an unshirkable responsibility for each of us. No responsibility is big or small, just cherish every grain of rice.

As I grew up, I became very good at saving food, but looking at my little brother and sister, they had no awareness of saving food at all.

After they eat once, their mouths, hands, table, and floor are all covered with debris. They are not eating, but playing with the food. As soon as I see this situation, I can't help but rush forward and take away the rice bowl in front of them, and then teach them a lesson to make them understand that food is hard-earned. Looking at their behavior, I feel helpless because they still don't understand, the meaning of food, the shame of waste, and the responsibility of everyone to save food.

But it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand. Now that I understand the meaning of saving food, I will be the first to tell them how to save food and what it means to waste food. It means a bad habit. If one day in the future everyone wastes food like this, the final result will be food shortage, and we will be the only ones who suffer in the end.
