        The longer food is stored in a plastic container, the more plastic leaches into it, right? If the 1952 powdered milk and crackers were stored in plastic containers, it makes sense that they contain the most plastic

          Was plastic common in 1952? Or was it transferred to Tupperware in the late sixties?

This comm is for the discussion of the ramifications of plastic pollution and reducing plastic pollution in your personal life in, preferably, an affordable way.

Rules :

  1. Suggestions for alternative products should be as vegan and as plastic free as possible.
  • Why vegan? More processing means more plastic usually, and most non-vegan options entail more tricks. Most wool, for example, goes through a technique known as ‘superwashing’ which plasticizes the wool to prevent shrinkage.
  1. Follow the Hexbear Code of Conduct.
