Signs That You Need To De-Clutter Your Kitchen – Singapore – April (Event)

Over the years, you’ve no doubt been enticed or persuaded to purchase the latest kitchen fads – from tupperwares to new slicing and dicing gadgets to electrical gizmos and more!

 


Have you ever asked yourself how often you actually use them, and if they are even necessary?

In fact, this excess clutter might be getting in the way of progress in many areas:

You Snack And Nibble All The Time

According to a recent study by Cornell Food and Brand Lab, there is a connection between a messy kitchen and unhealthy food choices. Based on their findings, people who have cluttered kitchens tend to have uncontrollable snacking habits!

You Tend To Buy More Kitchen Items That You Don’t Need, And End Up Stocking

There is so much stuff in your cupboards that you forget what you have. So you go and buy another corkscrew, can of tomato sauce, etc. which just worsens the state of your cupboards.

You Can’t Find A Utensil, But Then It Turns Up In The Next Few Days

In the meantime, you went out and bought a replacement!

You Don’t Know How To Stock Healthy Foods So You End Up Making Unhealthy Choices

Every nutritionist will tell you that if you stock only healthy food, you eat only healthy food – at least when you’re at home. However, perhaps you have teens or a spouse who are not ready to be as healthy as you want to be. So how do you organise snacks and treats for them, so that you’re not tempted?

You Struggle To Put A Healthy Meal On The Table On Time – So You End Up Eating Out More Often Than You Wish

Your vegetables are rotten because you forgot about them; the spices you wanted to use to season your vegetables have no smell; the dishes have not been done. No wonder you’re no longer in the mood to cook the healthy meal you had planned. So you would rather dine out, or yet again dial UberEATS!

You Feel Guilty About The Amount Of Food Wastage Due To Kitchen Items Being Past Their Expiry Date

You do your grocery shopping without having a list, and end up by buying more than you need.  You have plenty of good intentions about eating healthily at home and buy plenty of fresh food, but are not sure how you are going to cook it.
