30 Times Food Packaging Was So Wrong, People Couldn’t Stay Silent Any Longer

Why, just WHY?

In some places, they wrap small containers to discourage shoplifting as it is harder and more noticeable to take or remove packing to steal the item

Its not like those packages aren't already stackable right....smh.

wow just wow who does that wow

It is super obnoxious and bad for the environment! Go green

And air miles too...

Okay, this is the world's most expensive strawberry packaged for valentines day. It's wasteful as heck, and apparently not really all that special taste wise. The company who produced the strawberry tried to justify the cost and the packaging, but it's just a strawberry.

ᴄᴏᴍᴇs ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴀ ғʀᴇᴇ sᴄʀᴜɴᴄʜʏ!

Here I am recycling and reusing as much as I’m able and people think this S@it is a good idea. I’m actually really angry.

Who buys a single Strawberry for 21$? And in an unrelated matter: I got about 400$ in my garden such a person might be interested in. Always happy to help

why??? What possible benefit is there to be gained by removing an egg from its shell???

I think these are eggs with cracked shells instead of throwing them all to trash seller has find a way to resell them without the shell

this is not right...

Who came up with this stupid idea

Sometimes the distributor will put the inside into a plastic if the shell is broken, to avoid wasting any egg and still making a little profit (or at least not making too much losses)

Good luck getting it all out of the package, too.

... this is infuriating. Just opening this up or trying to scrap will lose an easy 10% of it.

That makes me almost violent! The stupidity!

whyyyyy?!!

Good grief, that is absurd.

I don't know in other countries, but here in México that isn't plastic, is some sort of gelatin film completly edible, you can choose if you eat it or discard it.

This is also just unhelpful for customers

:/

Just y and wut

This is already filled with preservatives...and packaged. Why....

FYI Those are mandarins... Not hating, just stating facts. Incredible post and caption though!

Just to point out, there are people that, due to mobility issues, cannot peel oranges, satsumas etc so this is the only way they, and their small children if they have them, can eat citrus fruit. That doesn't make the plastic suddenly not a problem, and I sure people like my friend, who had a stroke very young, would be much happier to buy their ready peeled oranges in compostable container.

If only disabled people could just get with the program and open things like every one else... Yes, some of these are ridiculous but some are to accommodate those who need accommodations. It's like those infomercials. The huggee (sp?) was made for wheelchair users. As you mock, please think of someone who might appreciate not having to try to use arthritic hands to peel a mandarin.

Many of these are crazy with too much packaging, but people with disabilities that keep them from being able to peel and cut food rely on these as access. They shouldn't be for the general public but should always be available for those who need it. Equity, people. Equity.

just thinking about the nails digging in to peel them. f*****g vomit

no wonder asian countries provide the most plastic in the sea

These are the "famed" Ruby Roman grapes that are grown exclusively in Ishikawa Prefecture in Japan are one of the most expensive fruits in the world (when sold as a bunch). Each grape is inspected and hand-picked for quality and taste. Fruit became a luxury item in Japan and is often given as gifts to show someone you truly care for them. Still, I'm not sure that I would pay 10 pounds for an individual grape (maybe if it was covered in gold dust and blessed by virgins)
