And the award for the Most Egregious Waste of Resources goes to…

McNEIL-PPC, Inc. for their Zyrtec-D packaging:

Yes, 24 individually wrapped nasal decongestant tablets. The lot of wasted plastic might be redeemable if the packaging wasn’t ridiculously child and old-person proof. The packaging works well if you’re carrying one in your pocket. Unfortunately, the packaging is more annoying than those sticky things on DVD holders and will work against you if you would like to, say, remove the tablet.
