To Kraft Canada:

Hello,

The fact that Dad's Cookies are Bullfrog Powered was a large part of the reason I chose to purchase these cookies over competing products. I applaud you for taking steps to reduce your carbon footprint. However, if you are sincere about your environmental commitment, I would fervently encourage you to investigate alternative packaging methods that would allow your packaging to be more easily recycled. The polystyrene inner tray, for example, could easily be replaced with a polypropylene tray. My local recycling program in Vancouver will accept the latter but not the former, and I know that other municipalities in the rest of Canada have similar restrictions on polystyrene.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration,

Nori Maki.
