Green Takeout Containers in Tacoma
 by KevinFreitas on 12/5/2007 @ 2:39pm |
Just wanted to use this as a place to create a list of restaurants here in town that avoid using styrofoam packaging for their takeout containers. It's been a real frustration of mine recently and just wanted to point out those that are making a positive difference. Thanks to them! Spaghetti Factory (tin foil, cardboard) The Red Hot (cardboard, I believe) |

Primo Grill uses some sort of cool container that certainly looks green. It's not styrofoam, seems to be made of paper or cardboard like stuff. |

 by izenmania on 12/6/2007 @ 10:41pm | hrm... the two places that I immediately think of that did this are now dead (Gary's Steak Out and From the Bayou both used cardboard boxes), alas.
I believe Taqueria El Guadalajara on Tacoma Ave. uses cardboard as well. |
