BYO Spork
Posted July 23, 2008 in Living Sustainably
Lately, as a good greenie, I’ve been obsessed with the BYO phenomenon. I bring my own bag, everywhere. I fantasize about bringing my own takeout container regularly. And everytime I see a disposable fork, spoon, or chopstick thrown onto a table I silently chastise myself and make a mental note: I need to buy a portable set of reusable silverware—or at the very least steal an old set from my mom’s house, pronto.
So today, it was not without a shrill inner cry of joy that I stumbled upon an outdoor stainless steel cutlery set made by a popular reusable water bottle producer.
It’s like the swiss army knife of treehuggers—never use a plastic fork again!
So tonight, afterwork, I’m going to indulge and buy that spork set and carry it with pride. That’s good news for my mom’s silver set, and my local takeout restaurant.
Next up: reusable chopsticks with a chic silk pouch.
