  A valiant effort by Tesco to reduce plastic usage.
  
  

  

  
  
  However I now have to put it in a plastic bag once I've opened it, rather than use the resealable packet they used to put it in!

  We have lots of them (Ikeas are cheaper), problem is unless you eat half the cheese at first sitting there is not enough packaging to fit one.

  I wash and re-use the vast majority of the plastic containers from our Chinese take away or ice cream for my cheese and all sorts of other things, no need to buy new containers.

  Recycle the excess packaging and make it into more Parklets.
