We use plastic frequently in the kitchen, from plastic forks, knives, and spoons to plastic containers for food storage. It's time to put our kitchen on a plastic detox; use reusable glass containers to store leftover food, and always opt for real silverware over disposable utensils. If you order takeout, ask the restaurant to skip the plasticware. There are also great reusable bamboo options if hosting a picnic or BBQ.
