My last post was about lunchboxes. But what about lunch at home? I used to use a lot of paper goods to make clean-up easier, and my kids especially love straws. For everything. Drinking, painting, magic wands…anyway, aside from chucking straws altogether, there are now much better alternatives for plastic and paperware. Browse around Green Home - it’s an amazing site, but I am particularly fond of their Kitchen section for a papergoods makeover. Can’t let go of brown bag lunches? Buy unbleached, recyclable ones! Do you go through plastic cups like the water that’s in them? These recycled cups are even dishwasher safe. And as for those straws, I love these compostable and biodegradable corn-resin straws. They taste particularly well with chocolate milk, so I’m told…
Love the straws! They’d go well with the bio bags I’ve got coming ![]()
