frenz. when you open a container that has a plastic sheath underneath the lid to you keep the sheath attached the entire time?!

or do you rip it off and toss it right away, and only use the lid from then on??

I leave it attached for some reason i feel like it gives the food an extra layer of air protection 😂 but I’m not sure that’s true…

dairy-free ricotta btw by Kite Hill, very good 👍

@Armchaircouch It gives you zero protection, makes it harder for the lid around it to seal properly, and once unsealed, the inner surface just becomes a new surface for microorganisms to colonise, and for dust particles to be attracted to.

Throw it away with a light heart and easy conscience.

lol! I tossed it with reckless abandon!
too right about the new surface for microorganisms, as demonstrated by a story told by a naut on this thread about their yogurt… 😩

I shall toss all plastics from here on out! @AskTheDevil
