One of the many other problems with recycling besides this tidbit, is the fact that most people don’t even follow the first two instructions before recycling. Nobody reuses anything and nobody has reduced their consumption.
There’s a bulk food store near me and it allows BYO containers (or you can use one of their compostable bags). It’s great! A little bit more work (you need to tare your/container write down the empty weight), but you get your goods in the container of your choice.
