Stick a fork in it!

Well, I am done. Yep, I am done using plastic silverware. Yes, my utilization of one of the greatest oxymoronic icons of Americana is being put to rest by me as of this date. I am no longer going to use plastic knives, forks, or spoons. Thanks to one of our teachers, Sharon Calle, I am committing to use my new bamboo ware at work. For around $10, I found the set shown in the picture.
It makes me wonder how many disposable forks, etc. I have thrown away during my life. The way I eat, I know it is way too many!
So now after I eat lunch here at work, I will take the extra minute to wash my new bamboo ware and tuck it away in its little pouch to be used again the next day.
Why don’t you join me in this?

I think… you should try some eco friendly, compostable cutlery, made from plant starch! Available through USFoodservice. We also have many organic and recycleable products. I work for USF in CT.However, my precious grandchildren have just started at your school, so I have a serious interest!! ;;-)

Thanks for the tip, Joyce! We’ll definitely look in to your products, as we’re always looking at ways to reduce our impact on the planet’s resources. Have a great day!
