Kourtney Kardashian revealed she ‘won’t be buying anymore plastic’ as she showed off her perfectly organized fridge full of non-recyclable materials on Tuesday night.
While the 41-year-old reality star has strived to live a more sustainable lifestyle for years, she would be the first to admit she still struggles with always choosing the more environmentally-friendly options at the grocery store.
‘I’m making an effort to not buy plastic containers so to those using boxes, glass or other plastic alternatives, thank you, and to any plastic I have here, I won’t be buying anymore,’ she wrote on her Instagram Story.
Progress not perfection: Kourtney Kardashian revealed she ‘won’t be buying anymore plastic’ as she showed off her perfectly organized fridge full of non-recyclable materials on Tuesday night
She concluded her caption by encouraging her 105 million followers to also stop purchasing plastic, as she posted a snap of her clean and orderly refrigerator.
The mother-of-three most likely has several fridges as this one only appeared to hold beverages, such as almond milk, grapefruit juice and drinkable probiotics.
Earlier this year, she urged her Poosh readers to make small changes in their daily lives, like avoiding plastic water bottles, using biodegradable garbage bags, tube-free toilet paper and stocking up on green cleaning supplies.
Kourtney’s post comes almost exactly one year after sister Kim Kardashian unveiled her walk-in fridge with six different brands of water, five different milks, a staggering amount of cheese and a special shelf just for sprinkles.
‘I’m making an effort to not buy plastic containers so to those using boxes, glass or other plastic alternatives, thank you, and to any plastic I have here, I won’t be buying anymore,’ she wrote on her Instagram Story.
After she was mocked for having ’empty’ shelves earlier this year, she gave a ‘fridge tour’ and went through her well-stocked pantries.
She started by showed fans the inside of her pantry, stating, ‘I got rid of all my plastics,’ while holding up her glass jars of various dried good, adding that even all her sprinkles are removed from their original containers.
Kim, then, walked past the freezer to a fridge with a clear glass door, which was largely empty, save for some Norwegian Voss water bottles, cans of Perrier sparkling water, boxed Flow water, Boxed Water Is Better cartons and Canada Dry soft drinks, stating she gets ‘rid of all’ the ‘plastic bottles’ for her ‘drink fridge.’

Elsewhere in the clip, Kim revealed that she stocks her fridges with a variety of traditional and plant-based milks, with her shelves featuring oat milk, lactose free, organic pasteurised, almond and priobiotic milk.
Explaining the need for so many different types, she said: ‘All my kids use a different kid of milk, you guys,’ while showing the fridge that was featured in the earlier Instagram story snap, then noting that ‘fresh water and juices’ were stocked in a separate area.
Kim then filmed herself walking into the main part of the kitchen, ‘where it all happens,’ she said, passing one of her staff members, Marina, on the way before opening the massive walk-in fridge.

The tour came after she was ridiculed by fans for showing off the surprisingly sparse interior of her fridge.
While modeling her new Skims collection, she posed in a tiny bralette in front of her nearly-empty fridge, which only contained water and milk, with no food in sight.
