Comments on: Plastic Challenge: Kristin in BC, Week 5 http://myplasticfreelife.com/showyourplastic/2011/04/plastic-challenge-kristin-in-bc-week-5/ Take the challenge. Collect your plastic waste (both recyclable and non) for one week or more. Then photograph, tally, and post it here. What can we learn about our habits and lifestyles by examining our waste? And what changes can each of us make to leave the planet a little less trashy?

Hopefully you’ll get more answers…

As for the artichoke hearts question, yeah, I’d go for glass over bpa-lined can. But finding them from the deli is the best option, assuming they are not just dumping out a big can.
