packets of ketchup are super wasteful (lemmy.ml)

The grams of waste per teaspoon of ketchup seems high.

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

You have the wrong comparison: k-cups == convenience

-- compared to instant coffee, k-cups make much, MUCH better coffee

— if you’re going to fresh grind, yeah I don’t know why you would use that machine. Probably just the inconvenience of having more than one.

— My compromise is a Keurig for when I want convenience or variety, and a French Press for when I want something nicer

I have a Kcup adapter to put in fresh coffee. No waste at all.
