Fascinating info. Thanks.
I wonder how improved food packaging has reduced mild and serious illness, too. Less spoilage means improved health.
I think your first post about this was how difficult to open some of the packages. Years ago when trying to open some of those packages I would say “Just think of the elderly!”
And now I am one!
The hardest ones to open now are the small electronics or whatever inside of the huge stiff plastic packaging. Too tough for scissors so I need to use a knife - and even then it is difficult. Still have all my fingers though.
