On This Day – 31st May 2019 – Pet Peeves: Plastic Packaging and Microplastics


On this day, 31st May 2019, I was moaning about plastic packaging. Why are fruit and veg packaged in plastic? Shrinkwrapped cucumbers. Seriously? Grapes, kiwis, apples, tomatoes, leeks, mushrooms, etc.

Meat packaged in plastic.

Now we even have microplastics in food

Interesting info by National Geographic

Seven years later (is it really that long?), and nothing much has changed. I try to choose non-packaged fresh food, but it is almost impossible.

What about you?

  1. My pet peeve is that here in Canada, we have to use reusable cloth bags in the grocery store, but almost every item we put into that bag is, as you say, packaged in plastic.
