With bulk, product density at the store level can be significantly higher. So stores can provide a wider variety of foods in the same space.
You can make a big difference in your family’s food budget, and a big difference in the impact you make on the environment, by simply buying bulk foods whenever possible.
Packaged food goods require significantly more transportation to bring to shelf. The manufacture of packages pulls trees from our forests, uses enormous amounts of energy and shoots tons of CO2 into our atmosphere. Plus, packaging is a burden on our landfills. With bulk foods, you’ll be a better environmental citizen!
