Some of my frequent grocery purchases come in single use plastics. I wish there was another way :(.

Try searching for a "refillery" or refill station near you. They are stores where you bring reusable containers with you to fill with goods. They usually have a limited selection but it's something and it helps.

I've been doing that for things like shampoo and detergents. But unfortunately I've got celiacs. All my food HAS to be packaged so that I know it's safe to eat.
