Why use Bamboo Utensils? We were having a party and were thinking of using the inexpensive plastic utensils you get with your take out. Then I saw the amount of plastic being found in the oceans, and that only about 5% of plastics get recycled.
So what alternatives are there for disposable flatware? Bamboo is a grass that can be mowed like a lawn and can be grown without pesticides. It is one of the most sustainable fibers available. And is being used in more products as people become more aware of the impact of using plastics. So next time you are having a get together and need disposable utensils please consider getting bamboo!
