Single-use kitchen plastics – such things as plastic eating utensils, cups and containers from cottage cheese, sour cream, chip dip, margarine and milk – are ubiquitous, and it may seem environmentally sensible to wash and reuse them. But according to Ingham, these items are not made of materials designed for repeated use or cleaning with hot soap and water.
