I think that is amazing that they accept SNAP(Food Stamps) most of the time low income families are left out of the loop when it comes to economically friendly and organic lifestyle changes. The organic food is either too pricy or not widely available. I remember when I lived in Austin Tx the farmer's markets I went to would double your dollar on WIC for fruits and vegetables up to 40.00 which made it easy to have fresh locally grown produce. I was also able to try more fruit and vegetables that I hadn't before without the fear of going over my 11.00 or 20.00 normal limit. I think more programs and places such as Tare should be widely available even to those in low income area's.

Or at least some hand sanitizer in a mason jar pump. And if it happens to be scented hand sanitizer that they sell it doubles as a free sample. In fact, it be a better solution for them considering that there was a small business. Those hand washing stations are Uber expensive to buy ($5,000 to 10,000 depending on the model you get) and a pain in the arse to be able to maintain. Because you have a freshwater tank to have to keep filled and a gray water tank that you got to figure out how to responsibly dispose of the water. Plus those hand washing stations would also have to be wiped down after every use. And i work at a Sam's Club, so i can tell you; that doesn't happen.

@jaune-soleil 4 года назад

Seriously, there is absolutely no reason to have the packaging we have. Not including the pollution, packaging also hikes up the price of the product you are buying. So when you buy a gallon of milk you're not just paying for the milk. A large sum of your money is going to everything that is involved with the packaging. So you're litterly paying for the plastic jug, the plastic label, the ink, the print (advertisement), the glue & all you're going to do is throw it away. So in the end you're just throwing away money. If we got rid of the packaging we have today, companys would be able to make groceries more affordable as there cost for advertising & packaging would go down significantly. We need to go back to glass packaging that is reusable. This problem today is proof that you don't fix something thats not broken

@CraftxTD 4 года назад

There’s a sort of problem to that though. While there are many materials we can make with to make re-utilizable bags for, we can be also less efficient because of the energy it takes to produce such items. Plastic is very, very easy to create. Like incredibly easy. It almost doesn’t even cost like anything, which makes it way more efficient to fabricate than traditional materials, like glass, etc. I believe we should use plastic in combination with other materials as well, but we need to be heavy, and I mean HEAVILY strict on recycling it. If humanity manages to recycle every single amount of plastic they make, there would be barely any problem. No unnecessary plastic would be made either.

For example, the best olive oil is spanish, and in these stores, they sell from other places, etc. You also need to either live close, or have a car if you're buying a lot, and also KNOW what you're buying.

for everyone commenting about the price it's expensive for 2 reasons: 1. it's local and organic 2. it's in LA, where everything is more expensive removing wasteful packaging does decrease the cost of the product. these products are just more expensive because they come from small producers which arent mass producing on the scale of international brands which can afford to cheapen the process so much that the cost per unit of product is lower. if they used cheaper foods, the cost would be cheaper at that store than it would be at a traditional american store

Exactly, excellent concept if we can guarantee it will be clean, untouched with germs and sanitary. I think it will be developed to work and be popular centuries from now.. So no hope to make this mainstream now but eventually. Especially because of these huge companies that control the market

Just bc our food is packed doesnt mean it's clean. Your packed food is more unclean that you can imagine. More traditional locals of selling food are still common in my country, and no problem has been documented.

Naw they said they were constantly sanitizing the common contact points like the ladles and such that's enough right there. Just think about how many hands have been on your produce or even other packaged groceries. I know I've moved things to get to the items I want or returned something after looking at it, then you have all the store employees restocking and doing inventory plus then the transport teams touching everything and finally your packaging place as well.

Jesus man, can you imagine the condition of the food our ancestors ate 500 years ago.

Wow. Reminds me of my grand parents era shopping. Minimum waste and no plastics.

Omg, this is my dream. I truly wish for a store like this in my town. Bravo guys!!!

We had one of these 15 years ago in Yorkshire. Lasted six months. There were bits of hair and cross contamination.

I feel like zero waste grocery stores wouldn’t work where I live because even if you try to keep it clean not everyone would. Just like nasty roommates.
