Okay this may not be relatable for a lot of people who do not separate their trash into 4 different bins. But we have a dedicated bin for organic waste, we use it for energy production etc. The supermarkets put these little stickers on their fruit and veggies, they are similarly infuriating as stickers on non organic stuff.
Similar to the string, but it’s two black stretchy strings. They’re tightly wound and intended to be pulled off.
There are also certain anti theft ones that have very thick spikes that leave holes that don’t fill after being removed at the register.
