Over-packaged food

Nowadays, when we shop in the supermarket, there is not hard to find that the problem of over-packaged food. As we can see in the photo, most of the food are used too many plastic box to store the food, However, those plastic material will not reuse. We called it one-off  or used by only once. The purpose of this maybe just let the food good looking.

Some of food, not just the fruit, are single item package. For example, some candies are individually wrapped. However, the consumer will use the plastic bag. It will become useless to add on to use and other individual wrap. Therefore, the food manufacture should face on the over-packaged problem.
