The snowball begins its roll:
In a bid to better reduce single-use packaging and plastics, California Gov. Gavin Newsom has signed a bill giving the green light for restaurant patrons in the Golden State to use their own reusable containers and cups.Does anyone honestly believe that this will do a thing to preserve the environment? Of course not, this is just another leftie virtue signalling.

How many lefty lemmings will actually follow through with this?
Or will they instead just bring their own paper plates and throw-away bamboo chopsticks?
These people are nuts -- yet they keep getting elected, which indicates that there is a lot of nuttiness to go around in the Golden State.
I note that the bill states that the restaurant must clean and sanitized any surface that the reusable container touches while the staff fills it. Who is going to pay for the extra cleaning materials and time it takes to clean?
The restaurant must also have a written policy on how they will use reusable containers that food inspectors can review. Again, who is going to pay for the time to write & update the document? Who is going to give restaurant owners guidance on what must be in the document? Sounds like lawyers are going to get involved.
The article does not make it clear, can the restaurant owner's written policy be that they are not going to participate in this craziness?
Darren, please let us know how many times you see someone reusing at a restaurant and perceived outcome.
You bring up excellent points.
I don't eat out much, but I'll watch for this.
It's like our state-wide plastic bag ban. In a state where we *citizens* can talk about the snowpack each spring, because water is such a critical resource, how much water are we spending washing reusable grocery bags?
