    Reminder when you get take out, state to staff multiple times no plastic utensils are needed. I find they listen better if you actually share your reason why.

    Shopping at publix's makes it hard to purchase fresh produce without plastic wrapping.

    Ensure to not receive a straw at restaurants, start with "no straw in water/soda please and thank you! " Make sure to be very clear with stating no Straw. As many restaurant staff put a straw in every drink by habit, the customers need to assist with breaking this habit.
