Catering disposables

Barbara Fruish
We want to phase out single use plastic, cups, bottles, forks and knifes, etc. Not sure that wooden cutlery is the answer. Is there a suitable replacement, has anyone carried out a long term impact study of the production cost of using disposable's compared to the cost of purchasing crockery and cutlery and the energy used to wash it?
