Completely forgot that you guys have literal milk bags. lol
I don't think I've ever seen an egg carton that isn't out of recycled paper though. For glass stuff there's at least an argument to be made about weight, but in regards to drinking water it should ideally be unnecessary anyway through clean tap water.
I'm in the US, but I've seen plenty of plastic egg cartons. Most are paper, but plastic isn't uncommon in my experience.
The only plastic cartons for eggs I've seen were clear plastic ones for colored Easter eggs.
Styrofoam cartons used to be common. Don't seem them much anymore, granted.
Definitely not where I am living. We only had the same cartons going all the way back into the 90s.
the ones I see are typically a type of styrofoam
Packaged together in another plastic bag, then placed in yet another plastic bag at checkout. It is the Russian doll of consumer packaging.
What's the second plastic bag for? On checkouts we only have paper bags. At least for like throwaway ones.
