...almost every perishable we buy is covered in it...plastic bottles (danone has a lot to answer for)
When I go to the supermarket I remove all the excess packaging and leave it behind me...e.g. removing plastic lids on top of yoghurt foil seals, cardboard sleeves that bind 6 packs of yogurts, plastic advertising wrapped around "special offers", frozen pizzas from their boxes, I've even been know to remove cornflakes from the boxes !
This passes the recycling (or disposal) onus on to the supermarket who will hopefully pass it back to the producers who may be compelled to produce less - well that's the theory at any rate...
Am I the only nutcase who does this ?
Does this not encourage people to prematurely scrap cars instead of repairing them?

I am not at all sold on the health benefits of most of these drinks (and yes, we buy them too....). They all seem murderously sweet. Ditto, indeed, for the petit-filou type products.
Is anyone aware of any research or independent (even quasi-independent) commentary on the virtues of these products?

and as they are probably members of Repak and therefore don't have to take back excess packaging why don't they tell you to take your own litter home and get rid of it yourself?What happens when you get to the checkout? How do staff deal with the items minus their barcodes for scanning?
You can buy an oul tablet at the chemist for those healthy bacteria anyho.
