Today we went grocery shopping for the first time during this project. We bought fruits and veggies, but we had to put the asparagus back because there were plastic tags affixed to every bundle. We went to our favorite fresh veggies store, but we didn't buy lettuce, which was on our list, because they were all wrapped in plastic as well. We went to the meat shop next door and they agreed to put our purchases in our reusable containers, which is pretty helpful for us.
For dairy products, we are severely restricted in what we can purchase, since almost every dairy product is packaged in plastic, but we did find ice cream sandwiches that are wrapped in paper and stored in cardboard boxes. I always knew ice cream sandwiches were my heroes. This is obviously a suboptimal solution, but it's a tasty suboptimal solution, so I'm happy enough for the time being anyways.
