Question:

Does Plastic packaging affect your decision to buy at the grocery?

For instance, would you buy milk in a paper box rather than in a plastic bottle, or vice versa...

Answer:

I really don't care if the packaging is plastic or paper. I threw all of them into the recycling bin. Almost everything I bought are recyclable. Oh by the way, the reason they have plastic lining inside the soda can is because they don't want the metal oxidation to sips into the drink. Would taste very bad without the lining.
Without question plastic packaging influences my decisions at the stores (not just grocery)! This is one of the reasons we choose to buy in bulk and cook from scratch. I'm appauled every week when I see my neighbors trashcans lined up down the road. Almost every one of them is filled so full they cannot shut the lid, and they are HUGE trashcans. We produce about one bag every 8 weeks. Plastics should be reserved for items that NEED to be in plastic. I want my shampoo in plastic...I no not like the idea of dancing in the shower with broken glass. I want my soda in glass, or aluminum. By the way, did you know aluminum soda cans have a plastic lining? Shocking! I hate sneaky plastic!
