always have a few on hand. use my large panniers as bags.

Bought bar soap for my cats - My oldest really struggles with dry skin in the winter and he really liked this. Scared at first of course but found out how good it makes him feel during & afterwards. I wasn't brave enough to try it with my younger one but he doesn't have the same dry skin issues in the winter.

Hard to track what all the different numbers are/mean. Learning/reading more about these is helpful in my understanding of what they mean.

We used our own canned tomatoes to make my mom's recipe for Mexican Rice! Rice was purchased bulk too!

I have 5.3 lbs/year which I suppose seems right. Most of my disposable plastic comes from meat, cheese, and snack food packaging.

There is just a staggering amount of one time use plastics we use or have foisted upon us and no consequences for the manufacture of these with no plan to remove them upon completion.

Reusable glass cup with lid, collapsible food container with lid, bamboo utensils, and a cloth napkin.

So far great. We continue to try to learn more how to reduce or eliminate plastic waste.
