I wont go back to the old way. I have experienced some negative feedback about sanitation issues with using my own jars, but I just brush it off. Also, be wise about what size jar you use, if you only plan to get a small amount bring a small jar. The Whole Foods I go to, as well as Sprouts, only take off a certain amount of tare weight. So, I end up having to pay for some of the jar weight. So just be mindful of that and the store policies. Thanks for being a great inspiration Lauren. I'm really enjoying the looks I get from people when I go shopping.

But the impossible of the task took me to keep buying plastic things, like junk food etc, when i saw your blog it was like seeing my ideal for real, and you made me want to apply each of your post one by one into my life. 🙂

I do have a question for you though that I really hope you'll have time to answer.

I love travelling and do so quite frequently. When you travel (especially by airplane) how do you do that waste-free?

We have the same issue here, I can't seem to find any stores that will allow us to reuse our own containers (except for beer growlers). I always get the same answer from most places, including very small specialty stores that will take their containers back to recycle but not reuse them, saying that the state won't allow it but I live in rural NY so clearly it is not the whole state. I try to buy most of our produce in from bulk bins but oddly enough most of the organics I find are packaged in plastic and conventional is bulk, very frustrating. We grow a small garden with all organic, but unfortunately that season is now coming to an end. We buy our milk in glass bottles and are able to find a few things like eggs from other people we know that we can reuse our containers.

We clearly have the least amount of trash on the curb in our neighborhood but it is still frustrating to me how much we produce and I would love to be closer to zero waste.

I find that some places won't let me use my own jars for sanitation issues. Shopping this way definitely limits the number of stores I can go to, but it also forces me to be creative and make more things myself. Keep up the good work!
