Our Product & Packaging MaterialsUpdated 2 months ago
Glass Jars
We are using glass for our Almond Butter because:
1) We're concerned about rampant plastic pollution, whereas glass is reusable and infinitely recyclable
2) Plastic uses fossil fuels to create, which are expensive, polluting, and contributing to climate change
3) Fatty products like nut butter leach endocrine disrupting chemicals of many types from plastic into the product, which are harmful to human health. See this link for a deep dive on #3:
