Bulk Goods

I am a big fan of bulk goods. Or, rather, I am a big fan of not wasting things, like packaging and containers. Bulk foods is the perfect intersection of two radically divergent political groups: tree hugging liberals with their desire to save the environmnet, and hard nosed cheap people, like myself. I buy bulk because it is cheaper and there is less waste involved than with convential packaging....reuse, reduce, recycle. I guess I am a bigger can of reuse and reduce!
