As a kid, I kept fantazing about wrapping up my leftovers and mailing them to the starving children in India!

Me too :-)  Only in my case it was Biafra. I remember being sent to my room in disgrace because I'd heard one too many times "Think of the poor starving children in Biafra" and i said "Right, fine, let them eat it then because I don't want to".

I try not to waste food, but not to force myself to eat what I don't want. I try to buy what I need and freeze leftovers. I need to save money.

It's so true, it took me years to realise that food going into fat on my hips because I didn't need it was just as much a waste as food going into the bin. As you said the savings start with buying less and i think that's where I struggle most. Once it's bought, if it's excess then it's already a waste regardless of what happens to it.
