I'm guessing the answer is you've gone vegan, but I gotta ask... eggs, milk, cheese and meat? how do you do get them without packaging?

- Pfhreak 7y agoBuy from a local farmer or butcher. And eggs usually come in compostable packaging.

I see the egg vendors at the farmers market filling cartons that people bring, then stacking the cartons they brought the eggs in, I presume to reuse. My top strategy is to lose taste in such things, like everyone I know looks at cigarettes. People's diets are their business, but I used to eat a lot of those things and now find them not remotely like food.
- forwhomst 7y agoMilk in glass bottles. Meat is wrapped in paper. Eggs go in a a paper carton. Cheese is tricky, most markets still wrap cut cheese in plastic, so I have to buy it from an actual cheese shop that uses waxed paper. Consequently I don’t eat much cheese.
- vxNsr 7y agoIsn't paper going to be thrown out anyway? And I've read that wax paper especially is difficult to recycle.
- arrosenberg 7y agoPretty sure wax paper can be composted.
- SXX 7y agoYou can just buy whole head of cheese and it's not only can be stored in fridge for months without getting bad, but also almost always matured in wax to begin with. Of course not all cheeses sold this way, but certainly most are never packed with plastic until product get to the end of supply chain at grocery store. It's alao cheaper to buy this way and quality of product on your table going to be much higher.
