[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I buy crackers and goldfish, pretzels in large packages but put them into a reusable container for school instead of single serving package or a plastic bag. [/quote]

Op- you’re overthinking what it means to reduce single use plastics. Your string cheese will always have plastics but maybe instead of string cheese give them a slice mozzarella from a block.[/quote]

But the big mozz is still in plastic[/quote]

Right, but it's not single use.[/quote]

It is single use. But the individual servings with more collective plastic are now not single use. [/quote]

Buy reusable snack bags.  We so rarely use the ziploc baggies that I grew up with.  I got a set of reusable sealable silicon ziploc-styles ranging from snack to gallon size.  Buy the large block of cheese or box of goldfish or whatever, and then dish it out into daily snack-size bags.

This morning DC packed a sandwich, slices of cheese from a block of cheddar and some blueberries, all put into reusable containers and carried in a lunchbox rather than a paper sack.  Everything will come home, get washed, and used again tomorrow.[/quote]
