Each bar is wrapped in cellophane, which are then wrapped in the normal outer packaging. To make the 4 pack, they simply took 2x two packs and put them on a cardboard tray,and then wrapped those.
I don’t think I’ve ever gone through so much unwrapping for candy.
Order literally anything from china. Each part in a Ziploc, then grouped in a Ziploc, in a box with bubble or balloon wrap, and/or styrofoam, then like 8 miles of yellow packing tape so you have no idea where to open from, and maybe another box or garbage bag layer with more tape, then the packing slip sleeve and more tape over that.
i have recently become very aware of and disgusted by the the amount of plastic waste i make.
every single goddammed thing is covered in it. it’s obscene and i am ashamed.
There are private companies that do recycle plastic film. I’m in the PNW and I use Ridwell, and it’s helped a lot. I still aim for Reduce first, try to not use plastic when possible, but with food that’s difficult. Reuse obviously, and then Recycle as my last resort, and Ridwell is good with that. If you’re in the PNW and are interested, I think I have discount codes since I’m a member, just DM me if interested

It also has alot of palm-oil in it so it is another reason to avoid it.
And it’s not vegan, and it’s not made from fair cocoa, so two more reasons
What did we package things in before disposable plastic became ubiquitous? I don’t think I was alive then. Or did we just have a lot less small and single serving products?
Kit Kat’s were in foil with a paper wrapper.
I bought some recently and was dismayed to see they were now in plastic as well.
I’m 38 and had to think real hard to remember when they had the foil wrapper and paper sleeve.
Wax paper, or just paper, or tin foil.
Like Cadbury creme eggs used to just be wrapped in foil, now they’re plastic. <- Apparently this is only in Canada since 2015. TIL.
We badly need to return to this
