When buying groceries at the supermarket, they need to be packed in plastic bags again. The reason is, I’m drunk. . .

Recently, when buying groceries at the supermarket, I noticed that all the vegetables had to be put in bags, and even the least premium ones had to be tied up with something similar to tape. In the past, when buying vegetables such as cucumbers, cabbages, and ginger, it was enough to simply attach a label to the vegetables. Asked the promoter in charge of the scales, who replied that it was a requirement from management. This goes against the goal of reducing pollution caused by the use of plastic bags. After thinking about it, I understood why this is done: some people, without realizing it, weigh out vegetables that are lighter in weight in order to determine the price, and then pick larger ones to attach those labels to. Spend less money and buy more vegetables. . . Alas, I’m speechless too.

Yes, when buying vegetables at the supermarket, some people don’t realize that for scallions priced at 3 yuan, they might strip off all the leaves and weigh only the white part!

The problem is that some individual dishes are optional.

This is passable; the salesperson can persuade them.

All unpackaged items need to be bagged; it’s free

It’s free. When reusable shopping bags were first introduced, if you bought 5 items, you would get 6 plastic bags; the extra one would cost extra.

Which is more important: environmental protection or corporate profitability?

Money that goes into your pocket is what really matters.

The label can be made disposable, or an edible pen can be used to draw a line between the label and the vegetable. If it doesn’t match, then it’s fraud
