Aldi has a great chicken replacement and the meatballs packaged with a pack of ketchup are excellent. I would wish for them to be available in a larger version

Aldi has a great chicken replacement and the meatballs packaged with a pack of ketchup are excellent. I would wish for them to be available in a larger version without the ketchup.
Another problem I have with all of this is the plastic packaging for everything. Getting something like that at a veggie butcher would be cool.

- whazor 4y agoIn a podcast I heard that The Vegetarian Butcher initially had experimental biological degradable packaging, but after buying hundreds of thousands they all went bad, and had to be thrown out. Now they use plastic packaging and they only try to solve one problem at a time.

- AstralStorm 4y agoWaxed paper, usually. It is not nearly close to biodegradable. It requires specific yeasts yo be present in the soil or the paper will remain for a very long time. Also waxed fabrics and glass or ceramic jars.
- stavros 4y agoThis sounds weird to me, it was a surprise to them that biodegradable packaging biodegraded?
- wongarsu 4y agoThe general assumption is that biodegradable materials biodegrade under conditions different from regular use and storage, or over long timeframes. The timber in your house is biodegradable, but if you keep it dry it will last a century or so. Packaging that biodegrades in regular storage isn't nessesarily bad, but surprising
- stavros 4y agoAh, it was a storage issue? That's interesting, thank you.
