I believe that companies package products like this because it is easier to distribute. It is also easier for them to sell. They know it will likely expire before you use a quarter of it. That is all inbuilt into their model. Waste. They know you will throw it out, go back to the store, buy some more and waste it again. They don't care. They want that. There is no reason to not have smaller packages except profits.

This reminded me of this.

Yup, by a semi-high level military dude working at the Pentagon, I kid you not. I got a visit from his boss who apologized and ordered him with an official document that was verbally read to me to not have any contact with me, a 50 bucks gift card and a few months later they transferred him to some random place in Kentucky or Nebraska or something like that. He had been pulling that line all over Pentagon City, Crystal City and Arlington in general and people complained. Had the nicest wife, but he was just a massive asshole. And all this while I was doing him a solid.

Forgejo/Codeberg. Something like that.

Holy crap, dejavu. For awhile, this was one of the ideas I had considered for getting paid. As part training, part voyeurism, but on YT not OF. But I am antigoogle so I nixed the idea.
