The grams of waste per teaspoon of ketchup seems high.

What else has a super high packaging waste per consumable volume?

Every box of sweets in Japan are like that. There’s an outer layer of plastic, an inner layer and every sweet is individually packaged. It feels so wasteful.

I got some chineese chocolate from a colleague, and it was a plastic wrapped paper box wih 10 smaller boxes on the inside. These smaller boxes were an orb shaped chocolate wrapped in aluminium foil, wrapped in a small plastic bag.
