I live between two major supermarkets, and neither of them provide any way for me to do this. All the meat in both is pre packaged (in store) before it hits the shelf. If you go to the butcher counter, they will package it in front of you.

But this is something which could be changed.

AS far as I know, meat MUST be labeled, which kind of necessitates a container for the label to affix to.

They can just use ... butcher paper.

I'm pretty certain you can't recycle waxed butcher paper.
