Ouch. I avoid plastics as much as possible. But I still wind up with a pile.

I did see one new cup made of bamboo with a bamboo or wood pulp liner that holds water. Of course it would take the industry 76 years to ramp up.

Recall going to the A&P as a kid. One meat counter, about 8 feet long. Beef, pork, fish. Wrapped in heavy wax paper, masking tape closure. Now everything on a styrofoam platter shrink-wrapped. Of course what else could they do after Tylenol poisoner?
