The grams of waste per teaspoon of ketchup seems high. What else has a super high packaging waste per consumable volume?

minus-squareChozo@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoI think they mean the packaging. Micro SD cards usually come in a package that’s 10x the volume of the card, itself. Though, I’m not sure there’s a decent way around that one. It’s really difficult to ship and stock incredibly small products like that.
minus-squarejasondj@ttrpg.networklinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI think MicroCenter’s house brand flash media is sold “loose”, or in minimal packaging, at the register. The USB sticks are for sure, and I think the SD and microSD too (though in a plastic carry case).
