I love our new kitchen compost waste bucket!  I got this at World Market, and it is awesome.  It has a charcoal filter under the lid, which really cuts down on any odor or bug problems.  We had tried using a large mason jar on the sink to collect the scraps, but that got pretty gross pretty quickly.  I tried just using a bag to collect the scraps, but our dog kept getting into the bags and eating all the gross stuff.  This is a great solution.  I also got the biodegradable compost bags to line the bin, so we will see how quickly they actually break down in our compost tumbler.
