Anyone else severely dislikes wasting food?

I ordered a drink yesterday that costed me $7.65 and I experienced some anxiety symptoms so I stopped drinking it. I keep on shifting between drinking it or storing it for later and considering it a loss. It happens with every expired food I end up having in the fridge. My mind has a hard time moving on from it. Anyone else experiencing this? Last year I got sick for several months and needed to throw away over $1,000 worth of food over the span of 6 months. Is this a lot?
