Well plastics are used, so I wouldn't call it perfect.

And the pack to the right of it seems to have fallen apart by itself. The packaging is far from perfect, but very creative.

Notice they're in marketing, they don't care about any of this ecological, practical or logistical nonsense, just think about how well this would sell!

I was hoping it was string, but you're probably right

Totally unrelated (to nuts): I feel that the prop masters of The Expanse did a stellar job of take away meal packaging. Even the utensils did double duty as the locking pins of the packaging.

It's not really evident from the series - I believe it's one of Adam Savage's videos you should check out, where he gets to talk to some of the prop masters.

You know what? Fuck it, I found it for you.
