The grams of waste per teaspoon of ketchup seems high.

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

This one has a reusable handle, it's just the little C shaped piece of plastic that the floss stretches across that is disposable. I'm sure it's not ideal, but I can get several uses out of each one before changing the floss. I just rinse it in hydrogen peroxide when I'm done. https://www.amazon.com/Listerine-ULTRACLEAN-Flosser-Refills-Flavored/dp/B00PG59X2K/

Looking for a link to the one above, I found this one, which seems to replace the floss each time with a pretty nicely engineered system, I haven't tried it though. https://www.orthomechanic.com/easy-flosser/ After watching the video I feel like I would drool into the floss spool compartment and or get it wet when rinsing the thing.
