Today, being Labor Day, it is probable that most of us will be throwing some hamburgers on the grill, tossing some pasta with olive oil and veggies, assembling a fruit salad, pouring an ice-cold-drink into a SOLO cup. EEEK! SOLO cup?!Yes, I have these internal struggles with myself. What do I do if we are having lots of people over and I don't have enough glasses or plates to keep up with the lemonade or the butterscotch delight?! Not too mention the insane amount of dirty dishes that I would be sentenced to! And after lots of cleaning, planning and hosting, trust me, I am ready for something a little stronger than lemonade and a seat in that adirondack chair on the back porch. But SOLO cups and plates are environmentally irresponsible, I know.
But maybe not so irresponsible anymore, SOLO has introduced bare by SOLO. The bare product line consists of bamboo plates (bamboo is an annually renewable resource) and recycled cups (20% post-consumer recycled plastic). And because no artificial colors have been added, they have a neutral color scheme that goes with everything!
I think it's an improvement! What do you think?
Enjoy your Labor Day!

I hate clean-up and these seem like the perfect semi-guilt-free solution! I didn’t know such things existed! Thanks.
Have a great Labor Day.
The bare products seem like a good alternative but there are people like me who actually reuse our Solo cups . . sometimes several times before putting them into the recycle bin.
