The grams of waste per teaspoon of ketchup seems high.

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

taco sauce packets at taco john's are a lot worse in the 'waste per packet per quantity of sauce' category.

Thanks for noting the per quantity nuance! :)

Water bottles suck, but you do get 500g of water for 10g of plastic. For ketchup it's more like 5g ketchup to 2g plastic. Never seen a taco John's packet and hope I never do

I would add straws themselves. People always complain about the paper straws that are ass, because they are. But straws themselves are. I don't think i ever drank anything and thought: you know what would make this drink better? A straw.
