Former Tokyo resident here. My local market sold individual raw eggs in a fancy plastic shell. That always struck me as the pièce de résistance of human idiocy.

handling the egg doesn't affect it. you don't eat the shell.

plastic is always going to be worse for the environment than cardboard.

I'm telling you, full stop, any sort of plastic packaging is worse for the environment than cardboard (especially recycled cardboard)

Recycling is not as effective as the media wants you to believe.

It still produces pollutants when reprocessing.

What it does, in actuality, is allow companies to reuse product instead of having to create new product. It saves them money.

That's the truth of recycling.
