  • Kringwinkels are a goldmine for stuff like this. We oftentimes get crates at a time, chockful of Weck jars, canning jars, and the ones with the rubber seal and metal wire closing mechanism. We can’t get rid of them fast enough because (almost) no one will buy them, even at 50 cents.

    If your local Kringwinkel doesn’t seem to have any, ask the staff, chances are they’re immediately recycling them rather than having them collect dust on the shelves.









  • They asked for more information about a topic in which they were interested, on a forum designed to spread information. I don’t think you can reasonably fault the person asking for more information of being lazy, when the OP could be considered equally lazy for not including the context in the first place, right?

    Either way you’re right, being able to look things up is a good skill to have! But maybe don’t be a jerk about it, we left reddit for a reason, right? ;)


  • Cans are lined with plastic that bleed estrogenic chemicals into the beverage

    I did some quick looking through google Ecosia and I found some stuff that (seemingly? I’m not an expert) confirms this. It made sweeping statements about pretty much all plastic, though. Do you still drink stuff from plastic bottles?

    This sounds like a snide comment but it’s not, I’m interested because I currently still drink both from cans and plastic bottles!
