PUBLiSHER’S NOTE
Meaning of Life Dear Reader,
When I became a father, meaning within my everyday life morphed as my roles changed. At that point of life, meaning was assigned to a very tight circle of events— the next drop-off or pick-up at school, the next afterschool activity, the next birthday, and subsequent developmental milestones that accompanied each passing year. Now that they have grown and started families of their own, we stay in touch through text messages and FaceTime along with the occasional visit. And with these visits, I find new meaning as a grandfather with a dimension of spirituality to it all. So, what gives our lives meaning? Well in this stage of my life, meaning comes from relationships that are forged and nurtured. Tomorrow’s answer? We’ll see when we get there.
As I sit down to write a column each week, my thoughts return to an overarching theme. What gives our lives meaning? Is it a sense of identity, as defined by the roles that we are assigned? Is it a sense of place, shaped by the communities of which we are a part? Is it a sense of love, as expressed through the people in our lives? Over the years, my answers have been many and varied. What gave my life meaning in my early 20’s is much different from what gives my life meaning today as circumstances change, priorities shift, and perspectives grow. PATRICK WOOD

“Beneficiary” is often used interchangeably with “heir,” but its meaning is different. A beneficiary is someone who is part of your stated plan because you have designated them to receive your money or property through written documents such as wills, trusts, retirement accounts, and other similar documents. Currently, the law does not allow someone to name a pet as a beneficiary, but many states allow a trust to be created to benefit a pet, with the trust named as the beneficiary of an account or property. Naming a minor as a beneficiary also requires careful thought. The inheritance will actually be in the hands of the child’s parent or guardian until the child reaches the age of majority, at which time the child gains immediate access to the inheritance. Call to schedule a meeting to review your plan to ensure that it captures your desires.

NTC names new president
Northcentral Technical College will have a new president. The NTC Board of Trustees named Jeanie Worden as its next president, WSAU reports. Worden is currently NTC’s vice president and has worked with the college for 26 years. Worden will replace Lori Weyers, who retires June 30. ▲ Ryan Owens speaks with residents Monday at the Jefferson Street Inn, where he announced his candidacy for state attorney general.

Ghidorzi didn’t say whether there has been developer interest in the site yet, but says the downtown pads will support around 300 units of downtown housing. Between the mall redevelopment, the Riverlife area and Riverlife South, there could ultimately be more than 1,000 new units of housing in the downtown area.
Wausau native announces run for state attorney general
A native of Wausau and a D.C. Everest graduate announced his run for state attorney general Monday. Ryan Owens made the announcement Monday at the Jefferson Street Inn’s Lincoln Room after being introduced by State Assembly Member Pat Snyder (R—Schofield). That makes him the second Republican to announce a run for the seat, forcing a GOP primary in August 2022. Owens, running for the seat as a Republican, took plenty of shots at Gov. Evers and the current attorney general, Josh Kaul, who is up for re-election in 2022 and was elected on the same ballot as the current governor. Owens decried cancel culture, critical race theory, Evers’ and Kaul’s response to the Kenosha riots following the police shooting of Jacob Blake and their stance on school reopenings, which was largely handled by local school boards. Owens is a self-described “conservative professor” of law at UW–Madison, where he earned his undergraduate and law degree. Owens served former Gov. Tommy Thompson in his legal office, working to bring fugitives back to Wisconsin to face justice for their crimes.

County committee approves pushing phosphorus pilot program with state
The county’s Executive Committee approved looking into ways to seek funding from the state for a pilot project that could help reduce phosphorus pollution in the county. The proposal would essentially pay farmers with high pollution levels to reduce their phosphorus levels. The funding would help offset any expenditures made in reducing those levels. County officials already tried the idea on a smaller scale with a handful of farmers, says Marathon County Conservationist Paul Daigle. Farmers were able to reduce their pollution levels with new practices and ended up generally saving money. This program would extend this to farmers in the Fenwood Creek area and would operate as a state pilot program. If successful, the state could expand it to other polluted areas. Daigle says a number of large-scale dairy operations are exploring such practices because of the potential monetary savings as well. Marathon County Administrator Lance Leonhard says the Wisconsin Counties Association has identified $7 million in the two-year state budget that could potentially be used for the program.
County could start video recording committee meetings

With demolition of the Wausau Center mall imminent, the former regional mall could be pad-ready for development by August, officials say. Wausau Opportunity Zone Project Manager Chuck Ghidorzi told the Wausau City Council this month that demolition of the mall is set to begin in mid-May. Demolition will start from the Sears end and will continue down to the JC Penney wing of the mall. WOZ officially closed the mall April 5. Many of the sculptures and other artwork has been removed and will be preserved, says Greater Wausau Chamber of Commerce President/CEO Dave Eckmann. Non-profits are being allowed to remove materials that might be helpful to their organizations, Eckmann told the council. A Department of Natural Resources hazardous materials inspection has already taken place, Ghidorzi says, and a soils management plan has been approved. An onsite inspection of the mall property was slated to take place April 21. Though demolition can be a very disruptive process, Ghidorzi says work is being done to mitigate that disruption. The group has hired a marketing consultant firm to help assist with communication and make sure the downtown is informed. “It’ll be business as usual for HOM Furniture and the parking ramps,” Ghidorzi says. “The process will have minimal effect on the Third Street merchants.” The moves set up the next phases of construction around the mall, including reconstructing several of the city’s streets around the mall. The city of Wausau set aside $1.2 million toward that reconstruction, says Mayor Katie Rosenberg, which will see much of the downtown’s con-

GOOD WEEK FOR:
Bees get their way on No Mow May
The city of Wausau is leaning toward trying No Mow May, despite some citizen pushback on the idea. The city’s Public Health and Safety Committee Tuesday voted 4-1 to recommend the program, which allows Wausau residents to not mow their lawns for the month of may to help pollinators. Bees and other pollinating insects rely on flowers like dandelions around May to help feed them, so they can pollinate other flowers. Other flowers outside of lawns fill that role later in the season. Not everyone is in favor of the proposal. Lisa Rasmussen says she voted against the proposal because she received more comments against No Mow May than she did in favor from residents. Other committee members had concerns too. The proposal brought concerns about increases in ticks, difficulties for the inspection department and that some would use it as an excuse to just not mow their lawn ever. But the assistance the program would give to the bee population, a crucial part of ecology, is enormous, says Isreal Del Toro, data science and ecology expert at Lawrence University in Appleton. Bee populations increases five-fold in Appleton after passing No Mow May. Del Toro says ticks didn’t noticeably increase when they measured them, and he says they will provide signs for Wausau residents who participate to use. The program will still need to be approved by the City Council.

Public Safety sends warning to Roc’s Place
Roc’s Place will face a revocation hearing for its liquor license next month after receiving too many demerit points from police calls. The Public Health and Safety Committee voted to hold a revocation hearing next month after a number of police reports indicated a number of issues at the bar. Police Chief Ben Bliven told the committee that there has been more than a dozen fights at Roc’s Place since 2019, either inside or outside the bar. On one occasion, which was previously brought to the committee’s attention, Bliven says the police requested the video from one particular fight and the relevant section of the video was cut out of the version provided to police. Five of those fights involved weapons, Bliven says. The committee will hold a hearing in early May. The hearings play out somewhat like a trial, with witnesses called and evidence presented. The hearing could result in the bar losing its liquor licenese. full county board meetings. It also records and publishes videos for meetings for the city of Wausau, as well as for the Wausau School Board. Those meetings are then published to Public Access’ various YouTube channels. According to an estimate prepared by Public Access, filming the extra meetings would cost roughly $8,000 for the year. The county’s Executive Committee elected to try the plan for the remainder of the year, which would cost closer to $5,000. Marathon County Administrator Lance Leonhard says there is money for it in the County Board’s budget that could pay for the service.

Altering the arrangement
Gov. Evers announced a restructured Foxconn deal that better reflects the company’s scaled back plans Gov. Tony Evers and Foxconn have announced the state has reached a new deal with the company over its Mount Pleasant project. The state originally agreed to a slate of tax incentives for the company under former GOP Gov. Scott Walker. But the company’s original vision for the project has been scaled back from what it laid out when that deal was struck. The Evers administration has taken the position that the revised project doesn’t meet the requirements of that original deal. The Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. Board, which met April 20, reviewed the new deal. The guv’s office said that is expected to be the final step of the process. “I’ve said all along that my goal as governor would be to find an agreement that works for Wisconsin taxpayers while providing the support Foxconn needs to be successful here in our state,” Evers said. The company originally envisioned what’s called a Generation 10 facility to build flat screens as big as garage doors. The plant was expected to eventually employ 13,000 people with a state incentive package worth $3 billion if the company hit hiring and construction goals. At one point, the company talked about retooling the plant to create smaller flat screens. It also has discussed a series of other projects for the facility, but has yet to qualify for state tax credits. The Department of Administration’s budget request noted it didn’t expect to make any payments to Foxconn through mid-2023. “In response to unforeseeable economic conditions, Foxconn began formal negotiations with a desire to lower taxpayer liability in exchange for the flexibility to pursue business opportunities that meet market demand,” said Foxconn Vice Chairman Jay Lee.
Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu says he doesn’t back legalizing medical marijuana in Wisconsin without FDA approval. During a WisPolitics.com luncheon on April 15, LeMahieu, R-Oostburg, said if the FDA approves medical use, marijuana should then be treated like any other prescription drug. “If the federal government delists it and it goes through FDA testing, then it should be treated like any other drug,” LeMahieu said. “If there’s advantages to it, if it helps out people, I have no problem with it as long as a doctor’s prescribing it. “But I think that discussion needs to be done at the federal level and not have some rogue state doing it without actual science behind it.” He also said there’s not enough support within his caucus for medical or recreational marijuana, which Gov. Tony Evers has proposed legalizing in his state budget plan. Assembly Speaker Robin Vos has voiced support for medical marijuana, but said it should be taken up as standalone legislation. In April 2019, the last time the question was posed to registered voters, the Marquette University Law School Poll found 83 percent backed the use of marijuana for medical purposes with a doctor’s prescription, while 12 percent were opposed.
Supreme Court rules against Evers public gathering order
A split state Supreme Court has ruled Gov. Tony Evers’ administration didn’t have the power to limit public gatherings last fall in an effort to combat a rise in COVID-19 cases. In the 4-3 ruling on April 14, the court found the order issued by then-Health Services Secretary Andrea Palm should’ve gone through the administrative rules process. Because it didn’t, the order was invalid and unenforceable. The majority added Palm’s order met the definition of a rule the court had laid out in a previous decision that overturned her extended stay-at-home order in May 2020.

Godlewski joins Dem U.S. Senate field
State Treasurer Sarah Godlewski is joining a growing Dem field for the U.S. Senate race next year. Godlewski said in her mid-April announcement she’s “different” than Ron Johnson. She charged the GOP incumbent tried to stop additional COVID aid for those in need, espoused conspiracy theories and defended those who stormed the U.S. Capitol. Godlewski’s 3-minute rollout video features clips of Johnson, R-Oshkosh, saying, “I think we’ve given people enough help” and saying those who participated in the violent protest at the Capitol in January “truly respect law enforcement.” “I don’t think you show respect by beating and killing police officers,” Godlewski fires back in her video. Godlewski worked for the U.S. Department of Defense and co-founded an investment firm before spearheading an effort to beat back a GOP proposal to eliminate the state treasurer’s office. She then won the office in 2018 after giving her campaign $290,000. She joins a Dem field that already includes Outagamie County Exec Tom Nelson, Milwaukee Bucks executive Alex Lasry and Wausau-area Dr. Gillian Battino. Other Dems considering a bid include: Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes; Steven Olikara, who helped found the Millennial Action Project; and state Sen. Chris Larson, of Milwaukee.

In the ruling, the court noted the issue over Palm’s restrictions on public gatherings was moot because they expired last fall. Still, the majority addressed the issues raised to reaffirm the limits of the Department of Health Services’ powers. The original Palm order, issued in October, restricted indoor gatherings to 25 percent of a room’s capacity. The Tavern League sued over the restriction. Two weeks later, the 3rd District Court of Appeals placed the order on hold. It then expired Nov. 6, the same day the appeals court ruled 2-1 the restriction should’ve been issued as an administrative rule. Still, writing for the majority, Chief Justice Pat Roggensack noted the case involves a question of whether Palm issued an order that violated state law. Roggensack also pointed out the former secretary’s directive impacted “every person in Wisconsin, in one way or another” as well as those who visit. Those factors overcome any arguments of the case being moot. “It charts a course that the Secretary-designee will repeat with future orders,” Roggensack wrote. “Accordingly, it is important to confirm, once again, that Emergency Order 3 is beyond the power that the legislature delegated to the Secretary-designee.”

COMMENTARY
By Wispolitics.com
Evers’ budget includes major climate change provisions Gov. Tony Evers’ budget includes some three dozen recommendations from his Climate Change Task Force, including tens of millions in new investments in green jobs, conservation efforts and renewable energy. One of the high-profile items: creating an Office of Environmental Justice within the Department of Administration to coordinate state efforts in addressing the impacts of climate change on low-income and minority residents. Evers also wants to double how much utilities pay into the Focus on Energy program, and require the Public Service Commission to include the social costs of carbon when determining whether to approve new power plants. Business groups argue many of the policies, which will face a tough sell in the GOP-controlled Legislature, will drive up energy costs. Meanwhile, environmental groups are praising them as critical to solving public health, economic and equity crises statewide. Altogether, the provisions call for spending about $60 million in state funds, issuing $187 million in bonds, and reducing taxes by $10.3 million, according to a WisPolitics.com tally. On top of that, Evers wants to reallocate more than $10 million in settlement money the state is receiving from Volkswagen to fund electric vehicle charging stations and redirect $2.5 million to bolster a fund that helps cover costs incurred during disasters. Meanwhile, the provision to increase how much utilities pay into the Focus on Energy program would add $200 million over the biennium to energy efficiency projects. Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes, who chaired the Climate Change Task Force, said the proposals are an investment in the future, arguing the state needs to take steps to blunt the impact of intense weather events and build a more resilient infrastructure. “The only hesitation, the only reservation will be political,” Barnes told WisPolitics.com. The Office of Environmental Justice proposed in the task force’s December report would be housed within the Department of Administration. Barnes noted other Great Lakes states such as Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota and New York already have something similar. The office would be led by an unclassified director appointed by the DOA secretary, and what the administration calls a chief resiliency officer. The latter position would help develop and oversee state and local government risk assessment. The biggest-ticket item from the task force proposals included in the budget is Evers’ call to increase the utility contribution to Focus on Energy to 2.4 percent of annual
operating revenues. That would generate an additional $100 million annually, pushing it to $200 million. Some of that money would be put aside to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy activities for lowincome households. They are defined as below 60 percent of the statewide median income, a standard that draws a line at $57,500 for a family of four, according to the Legislative Fiscal Bureau. Evers’ call to consider the social cost of carbon when the Public Service Commission considers issuing construction certifications doesn’t include a price tag. Under the proposal, which would kick in for applications filed with the PSC starting Dec. 31, the PSC would have to consider the issue for projects such as power plants and transmission lines. The social cost of carbon would be defined as the cost of economic and other harm resulting from the emission of one ton of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, according to the LFB. The PSC and Department of Natural Resources would have to biennially determine the social cost of carbon and then submit a report to the Legislature that describes its findings. The budget also calls for the PSC to establish a pilot program that would set a voluntary goal for utilities to collectively spend $100 million over five years on innovative technologies, including storage and microgrids. Scott Manley, of Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce, argued the social cost of carbon provision would be used to ensure the state never again approves a fossil fuel-fired power plant. Manley said Wisconsin is already a fairly high-cost state in terms of energy; making it more expensive now would be unfairly burdensome on business and residents still climbing out of the impacts of a global pandemic. According to the PSC, Wisconsin had the secondhighest residential and commercial rates in the Midwest in 2018, behind only Michigan. It was third-highest for industrial rates. Manley noted the increased assessment on utilities for Focus on Energy would be passed onto consumers and questioned basing energy policy decisions on the “magical thinking” of climate change advocates who he said have often been wrong. “These are the people who said we wouldn’t have snow anymore by this time, that the ice caps would have already melted and that most of the city of Miami would be underwater today,” Manley said. “None of that happened.” The Capitol Report is written by editorial staff at WisPolitics.com, a nonpartisan, Madison-based news

much in 2011, the worst year on record for some time (after the housing bubble burst). Although Marathon County didn’t quite hit those numbers, home prices are rising here too. The median home price in Marathon County hit $182,500 in 2020, a record for the county. That’s a huge leap from 2019 when the median price had hit $165,950. Compare that to the record low median price of $114,000 in 2011. A total of 1,894 homes were sold in 2020 in Marathon County, but the last three years have all seen more than 1,800 homes sold. All that means buyers need to be ready to act fast. The days of looking at a house, thinking it over, coming back with a more experienced relative, are long gone. “I have asked buyers in the driveway after seeing the house for 30 minutes, do you want to write them an offer?” Guenthner says. “That’s how fast the market moves.” As of Thursday morning, for example, there were 247 homes on the market in the greater Wausau area (including Merrill and Mosinee). Of those listings, only 48 were actually still available for sale. Realtor Lora Bladow is seeing the same thing, though she says larger-scale homes might sit a little longer on the market. But not by much. And the Wausau market isn’t even the most prolific right now, according to Bladow. “The Madison market is even crazier,” Bladow says. So why is the market in such a feeding frenzy right now? There are a couple of reasons. One, rents in Wausau and other places have been on the rise. New apartments have been popping up, including at the old Mountain Lanes site and at Riverlife. As new apartments are built, rising building costs will raise the price of construction, and thus the price of rents to compensate those funding the projects. An example: The price of lumber has risen 174% since this past April, data Bladow shared with City Pages shows. How’s that for inflation? But why 2020? Guenthner says there are more millennials with disposable income, who have either been living at home or in an apartment, who have decided to take the leap. Especially during the pandemic with less discretionary spending going on, they’ve had money built up to buy housing. And Bladow says she’s been seeing more out of state buyers than usual — not just from typical states such as Minnesota or Illinois, but from Nevada and Tennessee. “I think the resurgence of the small town is really proving itself this year,” Bladow says. It’s possible new rentals planned for Wausau, particu-

larly its downtown — developers say 1,000 units could be added in the downtown area as a result of projects that include Riverlife and the Wausau Center mall — could temper the market a bit. So-called empty nesters could start selling their homes more as they seek smaller abodes after their children leave. That could open up more inventory, increasing the supply side. But in the meantime, if you’re hunting for a house, some tips: Know exactly what you’re looking for, be ready to put in an offer, and don’t even think about getting a deal — more likely, you’re going to be spending more than the asking price. Getting pre-approved by a bank is an absolute must. If you’re not knowledgeable about houses and what to look for, make sure to have someone knowledgeable with you because that one showing might be the only one you get.

Roughly a month into the pandemic, things were looking rough for the economy, for local businesses, for people hoping they would still have a job at the end of it. So it might have come as a surprise that not only did the housing market not seem to be suffering at that point — it was going along as crazy as ever. That never stopped last year, the data shows. In fact, it set records for both the number of homes sold, and for the median home prices. That doesn’t mean selling houses looked the same — real estate professionals took measures to keep safe, such as sanitization, using video to show houses to buyers, insisting on mask wearing, limiting open houses. All of that was going on while the market continued to skyrocket. Prices continue to rise, inventory remains low, demand high, and if you’re in the market for a house… well, be prepared to think a lot differently than people did in the past. An example? Someone recently posted an anecdote on social media in which they had an appointment scheduled to look at a house. The realtor called back and had to cancel because someone out of state just put down an offer on the house and it was accepted. The buyer hadn’t even seen it in person. That didn’t come as a surprise to realtor Nichole Guenthner. “I’m on some Facebook groups where they’re telling stories of houses going for $50,000 over listing,” Guenthner says. Buyers are waiving contingencies and inspections. And appraisers are becoming taxed with the high level of sales. How crazy has the housing market become? A look at the stats is revealing. A record number of homes — 88,912 — were sold in 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to data from the Wisconsin Realtors Association. That’s about 4,000 more than the previous high in 2017. And median home prices in Wisconsin also hit a record — the median crossed the $200,000 number for the first time ever, and by quite a bit. The median sale price was $220,000 in 2020. For perspective, that’s about twice as
ABODE: DiY
By B.C. Kowalski
The DOWNSIDE of DiY Last year in the our Abode Series, I wrote about the Psychology of DIY. I was riding high on the idea of home improvement, rolling up one’s own sleeves and figuring things out. With the help of a friend, I’d installed a brand new toilet (with dual flush, fancy!) for about ¼ the price that it would have cost to have it professionally installed, and I’m happy to report that it is working quite nicely to this day. Around that time I had just ripped apart my shower as well. It started with one loose tile, which in short order became many loose tiles. It turned out the whole thing was crumbling because the tile was mortared to backing board that was - wait for it - drywall. So not a huge surprise that it didn’t last. I’m a little embarrassed to say that I am still not taking showers in my shower. I am in the process of putting the tiles on as I write this. What’s going on? Why is it taking so long? There are a number of psychological points I’ve learned along the way that come up with DIY, along with some unexpected things (yep, including the C word we’re all tired of hearing at this point).
Old mistakes and oddities
One of the things a DIYer often encounters goes something like this. Watch five YouTube videos on how to do a thing. Start doing a thing, and you quickly realize that what you have in front of you looks nothing like it did in any of the YouTube videos. If that sounds a little obtuse, I encountered this phenomenon with our toilet install. When we got down to the flange, it had been installed incorrectly, and instead of using the sliding bolt holes that allow you to easily replace them with fresh bolts, they used singular bolt holes and we couldn’t get the old bolts out (and the new ones in) without taking the flange off and/or rotating it to the right spot. Neither of us had confidence in dealing with the flange and so we used the old bolts instead, which wasn’t ideal. I’ve been finding this with my shower install too. I got stuck at numerous points in the process because something was done oddly and didn’t match up with any reference material I watched. It usually meant I needed to rethink my approach, and that takes time.
The job is bigger/different than initially thought
Which is often related to the above point. I started initially thinking I could just do a patch - I had extra tiles in the basement from whenever the last job was done. Then I quickly realized the rot on the walls extended much farther out than I initially thought. The job changed several times as I either learned something had been done a certain way in the past so I needed to retool, or work my way around a hindrance. I initially had thought to double panel the walls to match the initial drywall above what I cut out, but it turns out one panel is too thin, two panels is too thick. So I went with a single wall, and have a tile plan to overcome the odd off-level between the two walls.
▲ It’s getting there! No it’s not perfect and no I don’t care.
A new hope
Getting the first tiles on the wall have provided a huge sense of relief for me. It’s not as hard as I thought it might be. It’s actually been the most fun part so far. Tiling (I went with 4x16-inch tiles, and cutting them when needed has been pretty easy.) It’s kind of like adult legos, or like putting together a very easy, but large puzzle that needs to be mortared. Tricky parts are on their way through. I’m not looking forward to drilling the holes in the tile - I bought the proper drill bit but kind of wonder how that’s going to work in practice. Hopefully by this time next year I won’t have anything more to write on the topic because I will be happily showering in my beautiful new shower, imperfections and all.
Fear of failure
I just need some space
I’ve spoken with a few people about this: I feel like I need a good long open space of time in order to tackle DIY projects, even if they don’t take that long. A few others mentioned they felt the same. And my life unfortunately doesn’t lend itself to long, open blocks of time. I’m working on this (both in freeing up long, unscheduled blocks of time and of not needing them to work on DIY projects).

The tear down wasn’t terrible fun (and changed in accordance to the above point several times). Building up is a lot more fun. But, there also is more room for error. I put off tiling for a while, because it seemed like the moment of truth. This part in particular I wanted to make sure I did right. Just picking out the right tile took me quite a bit of indecision. (But funny enough, the day off I set aside to start tiling was the morning I actually chose my tiles and I’m very happy with my choice.) I had to get over the idea that I would do this perfectly and embrace imperfections. The Japanese have a philosophy behind this. I think it’s a good one.

What is aseptic packaging?
Pioneered by Tetra Pak in the 1950s, aseptic processing and packaging uses special technology and packaging materials that ensure the contents stay safe and tasty at room temperature. First, products go through a UHT process, which means they’re heated to an ultra-high temperature for about four to six seconds to kill any harmful bacteria. Then the food or beverage is immediately cooled down to room temperature. This rapid cooling helps maintain taste, quality and nutritional value. Once this process is done, the food is packed into aseptic packaging, which plays an important role in keeping the product safe to store on the shelf. In the case of Tetra Pak cartons, which can be used for a wide variety of shelf-stable foods, six layers of material protect the product from air and sunlight exposure that could degrade the taste and nutritional value. This unique processing and packaging method allows your foods and beverages to last for months unopened on the shelf without the need for additives or preservatives. Aseptic products have many benefits, including reducing food waste, adding convenience and protecting food during shipping.

Choice of 13 Homemade Sauces
Did you know that one third of food produced for human consumption goes to waste, according to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization? Recovering just half of that would be enough to feed the world. Food waste occurs at home when food spoils before it can be consumed. Foods and beverages in aseptic packaging last for months unopened in your pantry, giving you more time to consume them and decreasing the chances they will become food waste.
Searching out shelf-stable foods that last longer can also help stretch your grocery budget and ensure every dollar spent is worthwhile.
Adding convenience
Thanks to the extended shelf life of aseptic products, you can easily stock up on household staples and avoid “quick trips” to the grocery store for “just one thing.” And since these products can be stored in the pantry or cupboard until opened, you’re not eating up valuable fridge space when you stock up. If your pantry is short on space, foods and beverages in aseptic cartons come in square and rectangular shapes that are stackable to make the most of every inch. And, when you’ve finished the product inside, cartons can be recycled through most curbside recycling programs across the U.S. and Canada.
Shopping for shipping
Not all aseptic packaging is created equal. When items are shipped in a box, you want a robust package that arrives intact. Foods packaged in aseptic cartons are ideal for online shopping and shipping. In fact, cartons are about 60% lighter than cans. This translates to reduced carbon emissions during shipping, making cartons a more sustainable choice. And because aseptic products are perfectly fine at room temperature, you don’t need to worry about that ice pack melting during shipping. So, the next time you grocery shop, take a closer look at foods and beverages in aseptic carton packaging. These products will not only save you valuable time and money, but they will also stay nutritious and flavorful while safely stored in your pantry, without the need for refrigeration or preservatives. When you choose to purchase foods and beverages in shelf-stable cartons, you are choosing to minimize unnecessary trips to the grocery store and to decrease food waste.
