Are you kidding me?
Organic Picks wrote a blog post about how ridiculously wasteful this product is, and I agree. Throwing away a can and a plastic top is not a "green" way to make waffles. All the ingredients for waffles can be purchased from bulk bins at Rainbow or Berkeley Bowl or probably Whole Foods without any packaging at all. Zero Waste is the way to be "green." Over-packaging is the way to be "green-washed."

I totally agree with you - it's kind of a gross idea and there isn't really a good excuse, maybe if you were an astronaut or something. I have no problem putting together my own pancake or waffle batter (which doesn't taste any different without milk - I don't know why restaurants have an issue) -- this kind of packaging really ooks me out.

I can't believe with all this extra packaging, someone thought it was environmentally friendly? Not only is there a ton of packaging, but imagine all the environmental impact of creating the product. A big factory, machines, printing, product waste - the list goes on. I would have to say that this doesn't come up as environmentally friendly in my book. Mixing up some home made waffles and pancakes seems a ot healthier. If you're looking for extra flavor, try a squeeze of fresh orange and a scrape of vanilla.
