Chopped Sticks

The curse of the plastic chopstick wrapper means that eating plastic-free South East Asian style  can be hard work.

So too can carrying full size chopsticks – they are too long and pointy for comfort.

So it’s a big cheer for the clever Chinese for these folding chopsticks.

Open them up slide them together and they are full size sticks. Telescope them back together and seal them in the handy carrying pouch and they are easily transportable little things of beauty. Made of stainless steel and wood they look and feel good. We got ours in Beijing but maybe by now some clever importer has brought them to a town near you. Get googling chow mien chums.

  • Plastic lasts for ever and we are using it to make one use, throwaway items. We have created everlasting rubbish and plastic pollution is increasing exponentially. It is destroying the landscape, killing wildlife, poisoning the seas, and may well be poisoning us.

  • So in 2007 we began to boycott stupid and unnecessary plastic products and source biodegradable alternatives.

    Some of the plastic you won''t find in our bin. Click the rubbish to see what we boycott
