That said, I find jars problematic because of their bulk and weight. One is okay. I use a plastic 0.5L measuring cup as a food bowl, drinking cup, and as a water gatherer. The way I try to reduce plastic bags is to combine things. Instead of each meal or one meal's worth of an ingredient per bag I fill the bags full and portion stuff out. And with food like cereal I often use a large produce bag. They are thinner plastic and will hold several liters worth of food. It helps to eat simply, with a minimum of variety, when the goal is minimal packaging.
