So sad


I don't buy soda and I buy beer in cardboard cases.
If I bought six packs, I would cut them before throwing them away.
If you fold them into one ring, a simple cut will make them safer if they end up in the environment.
I have a feeling that most on this site already cut them.

2. I can't remember the last time I bought anything in plastic rings like that.
However, I did buy some locally produced apple cider at Whole Foods yesterday and the stuff is delicious. I had forgotten how good it is.

3. I generate a lot of those and I always pull the rings apart before discarding them. n/t
