Relatives love wasting food, and I usually wait until the last second to take it and eat it, I really hate it, and nagging them hasn't changed anything.

So what's your opinion on this? Or what do you do?

I agree but also disagree. It totally can send the wrong message and have people hold out food for you, which I definitely don't want. But if you can manage to avoid that, I do think it is less wasteful. It can be very circumstancial, but If I can eat your food that would go to the trash anyway, then I don't have to find food for myself for that meal. I don't have so much food in my fridge that if I eat something else instead then I would have to throw something of mine out. Also consider getting wrong orders, if I don't eat it it is probably just going to get thrown out and I have to still get something for myself anyway
