    I avoid so many things lately because of packaging!

    My biggest pet peeve at the moment is milk. There are so many dairy farmers nearby, all single use plastic containers :( while the same companies would have yogurt in glass jars that they ask back from the consumer and reuse. Why the difference?!

    I barely shop at normal supermarkets anymore, and I’m glad I’m able to eat the cost increase (~10% overall).

      Wait wait, they’re not even using cartons?! What the fuck?!

      I switched to oat millk a long time ago for the vast majority of my consumption(cereal, mostly) because it keeps way longer than regular milk and, as a bonus, the packaging is at least trying to be better for the environment.
