The landfills that are overflowing with what has replaced washable/reusable items are huge.
COULD NOT AGREE MORE!!! Too bad the money wasted on all the electro static cleaners won't get recouped. At the very beginning it was understandable to not pass glasses back and forth, to have simplified meal service. By June last year we knew for certain it was airborne and not going to get it touching your tray table. The Dole fruit cup will live in infamy and perpetuity as emblematic of overreaction in the guise of "safety".
