I am concerned that their mushrooms are packaged in black plastic containers which are not allowed in Mountain View's recycling. Why can't they be in a paper carton instead of any plastic container?

If you think Trader Joe's is bad, check out Ranch 99.

Safeway produce sections are 20 times as big as Trader Joe. That's where all the plastic gets bought. I refrain from TJ purchases in plastic because you can't check out the produce behind the package. Don't most people? They don't move as much produce as other stuff. Part of the activity in that area is prepared things ready to eat as in a Deli.
