Tips & Suggestions
Wash your used plastic cutlery and keep a set in your bag. Congrats! You now have reusable cutlery and don't need to take another set when you get take away.
Plastic cutlery is nice and light so it is convenient to carry around. And later, if you have to throw them out after use, you have still saved using 1 extra set of plastic cutlery.
Remember: anything you use twice is not single use.
