A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

The grams of waste per teaspoon of ketchup seems high.

What else has a super high packaging waste per consumable volume?

This one’s done to death, but kCups.

Also, plastic water bottles.

A more novel pick would be those plastic ez floss picks.

Other than just flossing with string, is there a good reusable floss holder?

Some people may have motor limitations that make flossing difficult. Or just find it gross

They are a bit more expensive than the plastic ones but they make plastic free ones.
