      I don't think a store like this would be allowed in New York - it would have to have throwaway containers like paper bags. If there is any food safety concern with a law to be passed, NY will be the first to pass it - the idea is great but the reusable jars are a food safety hazard - as for the food itself , as long as the customer doesn't have to touch it's OK, it's in dispensers - they do have the food bars in New York, where you grab your food with tongs or spoons - BUT right now during Covid food bars are not allowed in NY - all the product in food bars is now containerized and sold by portion

  • @Baynewsvideo

    Who and how do the reusable "jars" get cleaned and sanitized? Do they use water to clean the jars and if so, how much water is used? Is there a "green approved" sanitation process that does not use bleach?? Are the jars heavier than plastics? Old people and 3rd world immigrants might not want to carry all that weight on public transit? What would happen if I took my glass jar of barley to the beach for a snack...would the lifeguards give me a citation for having glass on the beach? Will Todd Gloria be shopping here for the festive and colorful rainbow jars?
    This is a noble effort, and the woke communities will be proud of the virtue you have shown.

    Wonder if the business is backed by some non-profit, funded in part with government money, seeking to justify its own existence. The store operator appears nice and sincere, but doubt the business is viable. Risk of product contamination is high. Probably doesn't scale well. Too complicated. People need to weigh their container first before dispensing product. People may change their mind or mix products leading to waste and shortage. The only true zero-waste store is the one that doesn't exist. In short, this is greenwashing that's likely funded in part with taxpayer money.

      @KevinB-gj1gk okay Samuel L... it's none of your business 'what's in my wallet! " The point of my comment made a year ago was that being wasteful is a mindset. Now, you can minimize anything or portion it out however you think will get you virtue points.... the fact is that IT'S NOT THE PRODUCT. IT'S THE PERSON.. & as long as wasteful @$$ people have the ability to purchase or consume, that makes all that extra curricular nonsense, nonsense.
      ... you should really think before you speak, you literally watched the same video I did. Now, a whole year later, here you are commenting on some broke or not sh!+.. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
      .... real fuqn facts: biden sent out 187 million stimulus checks, many with multiple people on single checks, which would bring a grand total of over 260-280 million muthafuqaz (men, women & children) that are broke in America!.... and I'd bet YOU were out here catching every check tossed out! See only broke muthafuqaz 'talk' about money, those who get it, aren't worried about someone elses finances! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 🖕.U.🤡

    Our big chain grocery stores have scales where consumers can weigh certain food products. Even with the scales, food is still wasted.
