Eggs are typically packaged in paper and molded pulp or polystyrene foam. But UK-based retailer Tesco decided to test out something new to package its eggs: recycled PET. The company said that during the last eight weeks, it has tested out a new type of plastic egg packaging in Scotland and Northern Ireland in nearly 200 stores. The packaging, which is made from recycled plastic bottles, has the potential to save more than a million eggs from going to waste each year.
