[quote=Anonymous]One day in Giant I was trying to avoid buying plastics and it was almost impossible. The European yogurt is in paper products but ours is all plastic. I had just listened to a NPR report about plastics so I was particularly focused on it and ended up feeling like I was having an anxiety attack when I really focused on it and just imagined all the endless plastic piled up somewhere from every single snack item. Part of the problem with the items OP cited are that they used to be small companies (Snapple) with some interest in not poisoning their customers and the earth but were eventually bought out by megacorps that only care about shareholder bottom line. Our lives are run by investment algorithms that reward companies for externalizong costs. We get farm milk (and they sell tea and lemoNade) is glass bottles. Wish we could get regulations like the Europeans on single use plastics. [/quote]
