I’m always looking for ways to reduce my plastic waste, and manufacturer’s always seem to be trying to find ways to trick me.
I normally get the Lidl dishwasher tablets as they are the only brand that appears to come plastic free, cardboard box, and tablets wrapped in a dissolvable cellulose film. However sometimes I can’t get there as its not always convenient.
Latest was CoOp that sold a cardboard box of tablets, but then each tablet was bloody wrapped in plastic, which is probably worse than just a plastic bag of the bastards.
Does anyone else know of brands that are safe to buy because they won’t try to trick you with hidden plastics?
No, these are definitely plastic wrapped not soluble.
Sorry you got the wrong kind - anyway the ones that dissolve are very common.
Not soluble?! I fear something is wrong with your machine, water not hot enough or something. I’ve never heard of someone having to dig the plastic wrapper out. Hell, that would make a mess melting on the heating coil.
Dig it out?
Have you never seen plastic wrapped tablets?
Oh! Didn’t realize that’s what you meant. Yeah, got those once off Amazon, not realizing what they were. What a pain, never again.
Bloody co-op.
