Currently, many companies are making efforts to reduce the use of plastic and other packaging materials that are harmful to the environment. Even so, there is a long way to go and, unfortunately, there are many companies that still abuse when it comes to packaging products.
The r/EgregiousPackaging subreddit is a space where users can share photos of packaging that is truly offensive due to excessive use of plastic or excessive size. Here we have compiled 15 packages that will leave you thinking “why?”.
