Preparing the food in front of you does not take into account all of the steps along the manufacturing chain. So maybe it should not be that surprising if everything is stored in plastic tubs, bins, and jars right up until they prepare it.

I try to buy only end products in glass jars, but I know full well that the ingredients and even final product can be stored in plastic all along the way before it is packaged in its final form and sent to the store. Still, I try to buy in glass jars because I haven't fully given in. I figure something that might sit on the shelf still for months could in fact get worse by being in plastic instead of glass, so I will still go for the glass.
