More Ways
to Avoid Plastic
• Jars. So
many jars. For salads, soups, sauces, juice, opened packages of things. Just
jars. Lots of jars.
• Aluminum
foil is a great stand-in for plastic wrap and can be easily recycled or saved
for reuse.
• Wax paper
is great for wrapping sandwiches. So are reusable sandwich pouches you can make
or purchase; many close with Velcro and are easy to launder or wipe clean.
• Reuse
empty yogurt, sour cream, or cream cheese containers. You’ve already got them
and you have to wash them before tossing them into the recycling bin anyway, so
you may as well use them again.
• Invest in
reusable lunch containers like bento boxes or tiffins to avoid waste when sending
off your little one (or yourself) with a bagged lunch.
