  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Use Reusable Utensils
    How can you be an advocate for using resusables instead of disposables for the rest of your community? Where are they currently dependent on disposable cutlery, and how can you convince them of the need for change?

    I find i use the most disposables during a party or when guests are visiting and we dont have enough to go around. Maybe a permanent set of cheaper metal silverware would be better!
