double ask for no plastic utensils.

today we will double ask for no plastic utensils. WHY We waste about 40 billion plastic utensils annually. Most can't be recycled, so end up polluting. Adding them is habitual for many eateries, let's be sure they don't. HOW As we order delivery during social distancing more than usual, let's add a note in our delivery request for no utensils. Then, let's call the restaurant to double check. TIP INSPIRATION I realized that a lot people are getting takeout and delivery now than before. That probably means more plastic, too. When I order delivery I always ask for no plastic, but sometimes it comes any way. In fact, sometimes they give me more because they misread and thought I asked for plastic — very frustrating. So, I've started putting the note in, and then calling to make sure they got the message.  Subscribe at todaywewillnewsletter.com | #todaywewill Today We Will 377 W11th St NY, NY 10014 Add us to your address book Want to change how you receive these emails?
