Well, yes, but a lot of us compost everything because it is EASIER.
Heave it on and let it rot :-(

Another advantage is that it reduces the smell and mess in the
non-recyclable rubbish.

But, as many people have pointed out, that applies to a traditional
heap only - you have to be a bit selective with wormeries. But they
do have other advantages.


Oh certainly - composting does indeed make sense. It's the holier-than-thou
over a few cabbage leaves that's making me giggle. And the total soh
failure about foie gras and caviare!!
