What do you do when there's a lot of food left after a party?

• Feed the family on it for a week?

• Donate it to a shelter?

• Throw it out?

• Have a second party and invite the neighbors?

This isn’t my problem. But I do go to parties where everyone brings something, enough food for several people, with the result that there’s often 4 to 6 times the amount of food that the number of guests can eat.

I’ve never dared to ask the hosts what they do with all the leftovers, so I’m asking you what you do, or what you would do.

Tags as I wrote them: parties, food, refreshments, groaning board, leftovers.
