Each bar is wrapped in cellophane, which are then wrapped in the normal outer packaging. To make the 4 pack, they simply took 2x two packs and put them on a cardboard tray,and then wrapped those.

I don’t think I’ve ever gone through so much unwrapping for candy.

    There is a business in Kent, WA that recycles, styrofoam, flex-foam and plastics (clear, bubble-wrap and grocery bags) for no cost. We save it up and I just dropped a truckload off today. Feels good to not throw it away.

      What do they do with the plastic?

      Recycling companies have been known to sit.ply export it to another country with worse regulations and dump in the landfill. You should try to find out where their plastic goes and what happens to it. You can’t really just trust that recycling companies are doing things right.

        They break the styrofoam down right there and make new material. I am not sure if they do everything on premise, but you can see it happening right there with some of it.
