How do you buy groceries?
I’m trying to transition to a low-waste lifestyle specifically to reduce my plastic waste, but hit a barrier the last time I was grocery shopping. Everything is wrapped in plastic. Every single thing.
I do not have the time to make things from scratch every week, me and my partner both work full time jobs and come home so exhausted that we can barely do the dishes or chores. We need pre-made food to survive. And even then, every ingredient for cooking from scratch comes wrapped in plastic.
So, what do we do? What do you all do? I’d like to make simple changes, like making our own yogurt and having our friend make all our bread, and we swap once a week. Or meal prepping once a month and freezing it. I’m so tired a majority of the time, it’s tough to conceive of.
