drying does just the opposite. Make

Cut Down On Waste
The average family throws away
approximately $2,000 of food each
year. Your Harvest Right Home Freeze
Dryer enables you to preserve your
food for later use. Food that was once
thrown away can be easily prepared,
freeze dried and packaged for later
use. You don't have to eat leftovers
until gone or they spoil in the
refrigerator. Just freeze dry them and
eat them when you would like. The
following are quotes of what research
has determined with regards to food
waste in The United States:
"Approximately 40 percent of food in
the U.S. is wasted, as about $165 billion
in uneaten food is thrown out every
year...That's a 50 percent jump since
the 1970's." (National Defense Council)
"Not only is it a waste of energy and
water and land, but it's a tragedy in
its own right, given that some 870
million people suffer from chronic
malnourishment. (Brad Plumer,
Washington Post)
"But it's not just simply the food
that's going to waste: think about all
the wasted energy, water, chemicals
and labor that went into producing,
transporting and storing what is
ultimately just left to rot." (Andrew
Gunther, Huffington Post)

3.6 WHAT CAN BE FREEZE DRIED?

You truly can freeze dry almost
anything. All kinds of fruits,
vegetables, and meats taste
wonderful when freeze dried. These

pineapple, grapes, strawberries,
peaches, green beans, peppers,
onions, potatoes, spinach, shrimp,
pork, beef, lobster, and nearly any
other prepared dish.
Your favorite meals that include meat
may be easily freeze dried. Foods
like stroganoff, rice dishes, chili, beef
stew, chicken a la king, casseroles,
shrimp, lobster, pulled pork, bacon,
pasta sauces or scrambled eggs are
perfect for this process.

challenging to freeze dry than others

factors. The best way to find out is by
