捨てても捨てても - what does this phrase mean?


I came across this sentence in my JLPT mock test book:

> 今の暮らしにはモノが溢れ、 **捨てても捨てても** 増え続ける。

I don't understand what kind of grammar and what is the meaning of the bold
phrase. It looks like an expression.




It's a phrase to express "despite doing it over and over". You can use it with
other verbs e.g. 食べても食べてもお腹がいっぱいにならない、拭いても拭いても落ちない etc
