Thoughts? I am currently trying to avoid using plastic packed drinks as much as possible due to it’s limited and finite recycle count

Certainly loud, but I think the way forward should have been engineering a quieter version instead of going back to plastic. And in the meantime use idk… a bowl?

Edit: use a bowl, meaning put the crisps in the bowl when you open them if the noise bothers you

Bowls of chips don’t ship well or work well with shopping
