I'm all for minimizing plastic cutlery waste but seeing how terrible paper straws are I can only imagine how annoying it would be to try and use a paper knife and fork. or eating soup with a paper spoon that flops apart halfway through the meal.
also, down with the checkmarxists!
- circlefavshape 3y agoAround here (Ireland) disposable cutlery is almost all wooden these days
- ghaff 3y agoQuite a few of the (well not many these days) conferences I attend that want to appear environmentally aware (yes, I know) use the biodegradable disposable cutlery. It's perfectly fine.
- binarycrusader 3y agoThere are commercially compostable PLA options for cutlery commonly available even in (US) supermarkets. That seems preferable?
- gruez 3y agoapparently "compostable" plastic are only compostable in industrial composters. If they're on the ground they still stick around for years.
- binarycrusader 3y agoYes, that's true in some cases, but is a reasonable compromise in my personal opinion.
