I've mostly switched to pressure cooker, bulk foods (25 lb bags of rice, beans, porridge), and the local produce stand (BYOB). Both my food and packaging waste is now minimal.
Most of my plastic waste is from prescriptions. OMG so wasteful. Wax paper bags would be just fine.
YMMV.
- callalex 3y agoRemember that these days “waxed” paper is actually PFAS.
- specialist 3y agoRight you are. I did forget. Last time I bought parchment paper, I settled on Costco/Kirkland brand, for that reason. I dimly recall it has a silicon-based coating for non-stick feature. Quick look at the box has no info. I anticipate we'll learn that all this fancy new silicon is toxic as well. FML. I still think paper is preferable to plastic. IIRC, Amazon Rx is using paper now.
