Thread Name: BS: Plastic Packaging...Sheeit!
Subject: RE: BS: Plastic Packaging...Sheeit!
I have arthritis in my hands, and these stupid and unnecessary packages are torture for me to open. Why wrap things once, then seal them yet again in a second layer? I stab them viciously with a sharp knife, it gets rid of the anger! When I was a girl (here we go...!) practically NOTHING was wrapped, you bought everything loose, even sugar was decanted into a cone of blue paper. Spuds, vegetables, bread, paraffin, nails, meat, you name it, you got it bare and put it in your shopping bag wrapped in newspaper if necessary. Sigh...
