Subject: food containers at cafeteria
Feedback: Hi was curious what happened to the paper/plant based containers for the salad bar and hot
food buffet. They had them for a brief period. The current plastic containers and plates they use are
number 6 plastic which is considered a health risk (can leach styrene a known neurotoxin) and hard to
recycle. Why can't they use a differnt plastic or go back to the plant based/paper containers? I stopped
buying from the cafeteria as I don't want to expose myself to toxins in the number 6 plastic and utensils
when using it for hot food particularly -which raises the risk of leaching toxins.
