I hope whichever supermarket it was GOES BUST due to UNSOLD SCOTCH EGGS

Absolute SAVAGES
 
THE FACT I HAVE NOW GOOGLED AND HAVE SEEMINGLY BEEN TRICKED INTO THINKING THE LIMB TURNIPS WERE REAL

Could supermarkets please STOP moving things around the every couple of months please? Just when I start to remember which aisle the hummus is in you GO AND FUCKING MOVE IT AGAIN

I know they think that by moving things around it encourages people to browse more while looking but it just makes me want to LEAVE!

My local supermarket doing this is the only thing that makes me feel alive thesedays :disco:
 
Hummus coming with a FLAP instead of a LID now. And it's still a plastic flap so I'm not sure how it's meant to be kind to trees.

It's reduced millions of tons of plastic waste. You can take all your soft/flexible plastics to the supermarket for recycling.
 
I've had the same with cartons of cottage cheese and large tubs of yoghurt.

I was actually quite pleased, after initially being pissed off that it would make the fridge messy. I realised I'd finally be forced to use some silicone stretchy lid things someone gave me from IKEA years ago.

But do many people actually do that? It's a material that consumers are considerably less likely to recycle because they have to put the effort in to go back to the Co-op with a bag of floppy plastics, so between that and @Tisch's point about the consumer using cling film to keep it fresh, it very much feels like supermarkets passing on the buck to everybody else and then giving themselves a big pat on the back for achieving a KPI.
 
We started putting them in the bag of reusable bags we take to the supermarket, so it's fairly easy to remember. And we put our uneaten hummus in a tuperware.

Neither of these things are a huge inconvenience for us.
 
I rarely go to the supermarket for one big shop. If I do it’s usually on my way back from somewhere, so I’m not really carrying a bag of stuff to recycle. Occasionally I will go on a Sunday afternoon to do a semi big shop, but I walk there with a trolley on wheels. I can’t remember the last time I recycled anything there. Maybe dropping batteries in those bins they have.

Most of my recycling just gets taken away in a multipurpose sack by the council every week, but as I understand it, those sheets of plastic film aren’t included in what they cover.
 
We've recycled all our soft plastics in supermarkets for a few years. At least twice a week one of us will take it. It helps that the Co-op is at the end of the road and we have to go past it most times we leave the house.

Realistically I only do it as Mr L is a recycling nazi though. If it was just me, I'd probably bin it.
 
Tbh, the biggest issue I have with the replacing of plastic lids with thin film is that it's far more likely to get crushed or broken when you pack your shopping and get it home.

And the things in those cartons are usually foods that are messy and stink.

People posting the most horrendous shit on Twitter but asterisking out words like k*lling, s**cide and r*pe like that somehow makes it less awful for anyone.

Yes that and the constant use of ‘I want to KMS’ (always an acronym) in the context of a disappointing plot development on Heartstoppers or something, but I assume that’s just the latest annoying young person thing.

The fact that the basic but reliable £7 bottle of wine I get at Sainsbury’s has GONE TO SHIT.
 
Literally, at least TRY not to blast out everyone's eardrums. No-one cares that you've sneezed, you manky bastard.
 
MYSELF

Work making millions but leaving it to the staff to organise a whipround for leaving/retirement gifts

Oh and I agree with the sneezing. They will swear blind that they "just can't help it", I'm not convinced.
 
Reminds me of one of my favourite memes, don't know where the original is but I found an edited version on TikTok
