Home-delivered meals have always bothered me. It looks like the perfect example of overlooked irresponsible #consumerism.
You have a fridge where you can store food for days, a freezer where you can store food for months, grocery stores and supermarkets everywhere around you (some of them open during weekends or at night), convenient online orders and cheap delivery of those groceries…
…and yet you need that a local restaurant wraps their stuff in way more plastic and paper than is necessary, and that some kid jumps on a dirty moped and whizzes dangerously through the city to get to your door right now?
At 11PM?
@tripu don’t know which label I should put on this, either awe or disgust.
The option of being able to order food at 11 PM or even the option to go to the store at night is a fortune/sacrifice some nations allow.
Plus it is based on the nation what packaging options are allowed. And if you complain of the waste a specific restaurant produces, why not green-friendlier alternative?
As bad as the consumerism sounds in waste production, iirc, it is only a fraction of what industry produces on a daily basis.
Don’t know if complaining about the icing on a cake is the best way to tackle the root cause.
