Reduced Food Waste
Did you find that one the most important things of the wastes that need to be decreased in Feee N Dried product is that it has a longer period of shelf life compared to when it is not freeze dried? Yes, Hence food products are commonly in a much higher time period than it use to be when it is freeze dried, so the ability of the customer to kee up the food for longer period before use it while it would not get rotting, which means that the waste will take place less ofer of the food. This will consequently as much of conservation for environment as well savings of money for customers, because of that they won't need to throw away the roduced Food any more.
Lower Carbon Footprint
Invest less energy when freeze-drying food.It is less time or energy spent in freeze-drying of food than in canning or drying it or cooking. It is not clear what kind of energy is the investment when doing freeze-drying exactly. In fact, just in the process of food-preservation via freeze-drying, is a less energy-guzzling method in setting up food-storage over other food-storage alternatives, which is advantageous to the climate.Less energy-investment in a storage system or food-storage process such as food-drying or food-cooking, will produce a low carbon footprint. Lower energy-investment means greater quantity of greenhouse gases being pumped into the atmosphere where the greenhouse gases act as a greenhouse, i.e., adding fuel to the greenhouse effect and global warming.
Freeze-dried foods are light and small. That is good for planet as well, as then you will have less packaging required, and packaging is bad for the planet (in terms of greenhouse gases) as the more you use to pack something, the bigger the damage to planet. That is good as, if we could mitigate it. Light, small food takes less space to storage, so again the food print of all that stuff is going to be lower.
Preservation of Nutrients and Flavors
However, most of those ones, Freeze N Dried, has the taste and nutrition that the fresh food use to have, so you would not have to get use to the taste of the food that has been artificially add in just because you want to have the taste and nutrition of the fresh goods.
In conclusion, by cooking your own food with freeze dried, you would not only treat yourself with the best taste and nutrition food snack, but along with that, you also help to ensure that you have consumed much less essence of energy by choosing food production that is no longer that destructive.
In my own point of view, I also consider that cooking at home itself is also a craft that I need to learn anyway, so developing it is also justified.
Minimal Water Usage
These foods are being produced for so little water. They’re different from other dehydrated foods in that, in the freeze drying process you’re taking out the water, but you’re not taking out the product itself and desiccating the product. And you end up with a great quality product with a minimum ecological footprint.
Versatility and Convenience
Rather than being single use, each of the Freeze N Dried individual packets are an ingredient that can be tethered into a larger meal. Every single use you destroy less pieces of single-use equipment than subscribers to the traditional meal kit service. Along with that, it creates the possibility for consumers to prepare more meals (for less money) and rely less on disposable cups, plates and bowls – thus less waste over time. The ease with which a single company can offer a level of convenience that is only increased by offering more ways to use their food means that the consumer is offered opportunity after opportunity to make more sustainable choices because their food can be used and dealt with in so many different ways.
