Take an inventory of plastic shit in your life. It's a lot. I don't think I could cut it out completely. I'm having a hard time imagining zero plastic grocery shopping. It's possible to be sure, but fucking everything comes in plastic.
Even things that don't use plastic packaging have plastics in their packaging - airtight seals on the inside of jar lids and the coating on the inside of soup cans come to mind. Can definitely reduce plastic consumption but I don't think going plastic free is possible unless you're raising your own food and the seeds/feed also come in plastic free packaging..
If you were to go to the co-op, buy only bulk, put it in jars straight off.... But even getting tooth paste or shampoo. It's tough.
