As I toss out yet another container from leftovers that once house a Japanese lunch,I sigh. Every single container restaurants use are P6 that my city does not recycle.
Previously,I used to just keep them to house my food at home and for storage. Then I read an article that this type of plastic leaches dangerous chemicals and it’s better to just toss it into the garbage.
Ohh,so what can a greeny and a foody do? Until restaurants minimize their portions (which ultimate what needs to happen),or start using expensive compostable dishes,should we just bring our own carry out containers with us as we patronage our favorite restaurants? We all got into the habit of carried our own shopping bags to the stores. Why can’t we grab one or two containers as we leave our house for a restaurant meal?
