Food being packed in shrink-wrap extends its shelf life from few days to weeks. Be it bell peppers or cucumbers, if things stay fresh they will be bought and eaten, if they dry up or spoil, they will be thrown away and all the energy and time spent on growing the food as well as transport is wasted. Even a single thin slice of cheese not being thrown away more than outways the entire packaging being plastic.
So, plastic to justify over-production?
