Yogurt, not the big one, but the single serving. Some come with a plastic lid (which is hard to get off) and then the sealed top underneath. I was opening one for Siobhan this morning, and I thought, do you need the plastic lid? I mean is there someone out there who can't finish it all? If you didn't finish it would you want to save it? What, 2 bites? Do we need to waste plastic like that? I, of course, will recycle mine. There are a lot of people who don't recycle or are unable to.
Do we need the plastic lid? That is all I want to know!
Well, believe it or not, something is being done about that:

Total waste of plastic.
ReplyDeletealthough tate rarely finishes his yogert. but he eats the yo baby stuff, so it doesn't have that redundant lid.
