The seeds from the fruits and vegetables you consume have other uses other than being planted. Here are some unconventional ideas:
Washing Detergent
Save up all your fruits and vegetable seeds and peels and stuff them into a plastic bottle. Add equal amounts of molasses to the concoction and fill the bottle two thirds full. Release the gas from the bottle everyday before giving it a good shake. After three weeks, drain the liquid enzyme from the bottle to be used as any type of washing detergent.
Plant Them
If a fruit was particularly tasty, save the seeds so that you can plant them. Chances are that it is of a good breed and that your tree will also bear the same great tasting fruit from which the seeds originated from.
Organic Compost
Keep a plastic bin with a lid outside your house where you can discard all your fruit and vegetable seeds and peels. Leave it there for about a month before using it as fertilizer for your organic garden.
