How to reduce the amount of plastic that come with vegetables and fruits?
Sometimes reducing the amount of plastic you use looks harder than it actually is. One simple thing I changed in my life is buying my fruits and vegtables on the (farmers) market instead of in the supermarket. In the supermarket (at least in my country), most vegetables are unnecessary prepacked in plastic. Fruits are most times not prepacked but the only bags that they give you to put them in are plastic bags. When I go to the market, I make sure to bring my own bag so I don’t need any plastic bags to carry my fruits and vegetables. I also ask if they can put the fruits and vegetables in my bag directly to avoid that they still put my fruits and vegetables in plastic bags. This way I don’t have plastic around my vegetables and fruits and I don’t produce any waste by shopping at the farmers market!
