The amount of plastic from a Kinder Bueno 4 pack - Lemmy.World

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.

What did we package things in before disposable plastic became ubiquitous? I don’t think I was alive then. Or did we just have a lot less small and single serving products?
Cellophane, foil, and/or paper.
