I have already addressed that point in detail earlier in the thread actually.Stored properly they would have lasted over a week easily.

But the large amount ordered meant they couldn't be stored properly they were piled on top of each other squashing the ones underneathe.
It was a cocky ill thought out point begging plan comitted by dumb Harry and resulted in huge amounts of fruit going to waste.

So if you are willing to cover for that behaviour it says it all for me really.

I am not covering up for anyone,I said Harry went over the top with 500 bananas, the point I made when I addressed the bananas issue was that you also could do a lot of things with bananas other than just eat them as they are.

The housemates are not just to blame for food going off or being wasted however, as I said to much derision again on here.
However, perhaps if BB didn't throw so many extra meals such as takeaways and drink at them then maybe with 12 housemates far more of those bananas would not have been wasted.

Not covering up at all. I do blame .yes, BB too for the wasted food,I've seen BBs in the past where they had to live on basic budgets for 2 and 3 weeks in a row,wiht very little in the way of takeaways or other speacial treats those weeks, these seem to get something every other night in addition to their shopping budgets.

When people are not made to respect the food they have then that is when real waste begins.

Bananas by the way are in protective skins,being on a floor in a clean stroeroom and stored correctly they would last a week easily anyway. Obviously Jay deliberately stamping on them would have destroyed a fair few of them but that says all about him and nothing about the others who didn't. really.

That's my view.You clearly see no wrong in housemates on BB wasting foodstuffs, I do very strongly,that's the difference between you and I on this then.

I made my point clear that they were all in the wrong regardless of the amount or quantity. So I do see wrong. What I do not agree with is you trying to cover up Harrys ordering of the bananas as the hms and BB own fault the bananas got ruined.

Like I said double and hypocritical standards.

Where am I covering up the bananas issue? I said ordering 500 was too many.

I am not a hypocrite by the way,I have not called you so, so kindly refrain from throwing personal insults to me as to that.Thank you.

[QUOTE]

and I totally agree with you - but I think BB should have stepped in and not allowed Harry to ask for so many - they knew they werent all going to be eaten, so should have limited them to around 200

I also agree on your other post however, that ripened bananas can be used for many thing, milkshakes, icecream etc

Also over-ripened ones can be used for baking, so therefore would not have been wasted (except where Jay spitefully trod on them!)

A whole different scenerio than chucking perfectly good BOXES of cereal around which just end up in the bin

Wasting food is wasting food. The bananas being wasted lies clearly with Harry. Just as the wasting of the cereal lies clearly with the hms that threw it around.
Regardless of whether BB should have ordered 200 instead of 500 or whether the hms could have made ice cream, milkshakes, baking etc.

But its okay for you to say that I don't see any wrong in food being wasted??

You went into great detail about how the bananas could have been eaten so in saying that you meant they could have been eaten. Everyone doesn't eat or like bananas. Also that was not Harrys intentions when he ordered them he ordered them to get at the hms.

he didn't care how they would be eaten etc.

Far as I'm aware - toys arent' something the digestive system handles particulary well when eaten, nor hold any form of nutritional value. Perhaps you've struck upon some new food source that no one else knows about.

Joey has addressed the points raised in your posts in respect of the issues above, I agree 100% with the replies he gave, which are below for you to read again.

It is in my view, quite relevant to point out that food doesn't need to be wasted like that, unopened boxes of cereal being deliberately ruined. What they wasted would have provided some nourishment for homeless people by way of a breakfast, not particularly wholesome food but better than nothing at all.

What on earth do you mean that this is a BB forum and not a charity forum, if the discussion of wasted food and what could have been done better with it that occurred in the 'BB house', then all areas of discussion are opened as to how that could have been done.

Everyone here is in the main talking about the 'BB housemates' on here and 'their' wasting of food,what one earth is your problem with some who have a conscience on the issue saying how that wasted food could have been better disposed of rather than wilfully destroyed by the 'BB housemates'.

This isn't about Harry ordering bananas, that could be eaten - and indeed were eaten - by all the housemates - Harry did not order food for it to be purposely ruined.

Notwithstanding that, this thread is about the deliberate act of ruining perfectly good foodstuffs which was shown last night - all the more so when all they do is whinge about 'being starving' - and Aaron's response to that.

It's not about Harry ordering an overload of certain item - which btw, bananas can be frozen and used at a later date - it's about the deliberate wasting of foodstuff as we saw last night.
