@geniusmusing Indeed. I greatly prefer bottles and jars unless I’m eating in the car as I travel somewhere. For one thing, it is hard to get the number of packets needed for your preferred flavor balance without having extras that get thrown away. (Especially now, when the person with the excess packets may have an asymptomatic or presymtomatic but still contagious #COVID-19 infection.)
I’m also noticing that a lot of packets are made with individual layers of multiple materials ... they are not recyclable at all.
