Collecting food waste in kitchen for composting – what do you do?
We want to collect food scraps in the kitchen for composting in the yard. What is the best solution for collecting the food waste so that you can periodically take it out? We don't want something stinky or icky that might attract bugs. Are there any good products? Thanks!
We got a small trash container that has a flip top and a bucket inside. It holds about one gallon. The container is black which is almost invisible in our kitchen. It ts the best solution we have come up with. Food scraps, coffee grounds, flower stems and cuttings go in and we empty every two or three days. No problems with odors or ants.

We use an empty 2 litre ice cream container with the original lid and empty it every day. Wash out with detergent after emptying
