How did it take humanity this long to think of this‽
Money. Plastic is probably still cheaper.
And more resilient to weather/time/etc. for transporting in sub-optimal conditions.
There’s also the possibility that since this is edible and exposed, putting this in a warehouse would invite a horde of rodents and insects.
It’s a good idea, but the reason we haven’t done this before is because it creates inconvenient problems for distribution centers and the logistics of transportation and storage. Which in the short and long run, costs more money to either prevent the negative outcomes, or deal with them later.
It is better for the environment, but I’d rather go after billionaires and huge corporations polluting the environment without repercussions first.
Floridaman feeds edibles to animals
New And Reformed Floridaman, or Old Floridaman? Because honestly I can parse that as a good deed or a bad one depending on how you want to frame it
Floridaman is an agent of chaos whose intentions cannot be understood by mortals.
All food packaging could be glass, paper, metal and cloth. It was just that until plastic was invented. We could go back to that and the world and people would be a bit healthier for it. We won’t, though, not until we’re forced to by something catastrophic.
Let’s be real here. This is Florida man we’re talking about, these things are not going to, and were never intended to, be fed to anyone or anything other than Florida man himself.
Just checked, these were invented in 2016 and didn’t take off.
I haven’t seen plastic rings in years, are they banned or are some companies just not using them?
