Can I recycle plastic cutlery?

Most recycling programs will not accept plastic cutlery. However, if you find one that does, any forks, spoons, and knives labeled with the number six from the list of resin identification codes are recyclable. Alternatively, you can reuse them at home. Give them to your kids to make crafts, such as wind chimes, or use them in your garden to label plants or deter pests. Many people place forks with the tong side up around their plants to keep pests away.

What are some advantages of using plastic forks for my party?

If you're having a large party, plastic forks and other cutlery make a convenient alternative to traditional silverware because you can buy them in bulk, and you don't have to wash them before or after the party. They're also lighter weight, so they're easy to transport from one location to another in large quantities. And you don't have to worry about guests accidentally throwing away your good silverware.
